Verdone moved. Tonight I sing The Last Moon from his Borotalco

During the Sanremo Festival, Tommaso Paradiso will perform 'L'ultima Luna' alongside the band Stadio, a song from Carlo Verdone's film 'Borotalco', which deeply moved Verdone.

Tommaso Paradiso, a prominent Italian singer, is set to perform 'L'ultima Luna' at the Sanremo Festival in a night dedicated to cover songs. This particular track is famous as part of the soundtrack from the movie 'Borotalco', directed by Carlo Verdone. The song holds significant nostalgic value as it represents the beautiful imagery associated with the film and the emotional connection it creates for both the audience and its creators.

Before his performance, Paradiso expressed his sentiment about reaching out to Verdone to share the news and honor the legacy of the film. Verdone, who was deeply touched by the opportunity to have his work celebrated in such a public setting, had to decline an invitation to attend the festival due to prior commitments. The affectionate exchange between the artists highlights the mutual respect and admiration they hold for each other and the impact of the artistic collaboration.

As Paradiso embarks on this journey at the Sanremo Festival, he has made it clear that he doesn’t view the event as a competition. Instead, his focus seems to be more about paying tribute to the musical and cinematic heritage associated with 'Borotalco'. His balanced approach to success and his personal celebrations encapsulate a deep appreciation for the craft and its cultural significance, which resonates throughout the festival.
