[Music Discovery] Prisencólinensináinciúsol - Adriano Celentano

[johngreenfield]

Prisencólinensináinciúsol - I haven't fallen asleep on my keyboard, this is a song released by Italian multi-talented musician Adriano Celentano. The whole song is essentially gibberish, but put simply it's what American English sounds like to Italians. I think Adriano himself puts it best:

“Ever since I started singing, I was very influenced by American music and everything Americans did. So at a certain point, because I like American slang—which, for a singer, is much easier to sing than Italian—I thought that I would write a song which would only have as its theme the inability to communicate. And to do this, I had to write a song where the lyrics didn't mean anything.”

I find this track really interesting personally, as I've noticed that when first listening to a song that the lyrics will sound exactly like Prisencolinensinainciusol; I hear the intonations and sounds, but not as words in a very similar way to hearing a foreign language you don't understand. I've gotta say as well, I'm fairly proud of being able to say prizeŋkolinensinainˈtʃuːzol (thanks wikipedia!).

What did you make of the song? I think it's a funky beat even with the gibberish lyrics. Let me know what you think down in the comment section, I always like to hear your thoughts.

Why do you have a bot flagging my post? How am I a bad steemian?

[johngreenfield]

Sorry mate, I genuinely have no idea what you mean.

What bot is flagging you? I don't have any bots or other accounts.

[johngreenfield]

Just had a look at your recent post, and I'm really sorry about that but it's not actually me. I've upvoted your post and will bring this to the attention of others. Hang in there, luckily they don't have much steempower

[rpgbuilders]

@jeanmarlo is the account that has led me to you. Thanks for the upvote and I'm really glad I didn't rage flag you. lol But yes this stinks because I have no idea what I have done to deserve this and all my posts are my own.

[rpgbuilders]

also I see we have both been downvoted by the same guy @johnrevelator

[johngreenfield]

They're all linked to the same person, @camillesteemer. I'll go through the accounts that have downvoted you, take a look at what they've been up to on steemd.com and report back.

[johngreenfield]

You've done nothing, this is just one angry spammer who is lashing out at everyone. There's already bots setup by other users to counter these accounts, so once they've added the new accounts onto their list, you should receive some healing upvotes.

I'm really sorry this has happened to you, and thank you for bringing it to my attention. My tiny upvote alone should be enough to counter their flags, but I know how annoying and upsetting this can be.

I'll be posting something about this later on, and I'll make sure to give you a shoutout for this! Thanks again bud

[rpgbuilders]

Thanks John I will be following to see what happens with your post, advice and what not. Thanks again for shedding some light on this issue. I have really been enjoying Steemit so far and have been an evangelist for the platform, getting my friends to sign up and what not. Yes very upsetting though.
