BUON SANGUE is again politically progressive, but also charming, very amusing and even moving ("Una storia d'amore"). The first song (and first single, I believe), "(Tanto)3", is at first grating but can grow on you (as it did on me), and I enjoy the silly video posted on the official Jovanotti website. The music here is not for everyone, but if you are already a fan I think you'll love this one. "Coraggio" is a real spirit-booster, and other songs are enjoyable for their political consciousness and for their composition. While political attitudes are clearly significant to those of us with brains, Lorenzo is perhaps more importantly the goofy friend who flushes worries by reminding one to laugh a lot and appreciate life.

Jovanotti's latest CD release is Safari.

N.B. You can download a 4-part (Italian-language) interview with Lorenzo Cherubini from MTV Storytellers, available FREE from the iTunes store.

I bought this album while visiting Padova. I haven't heard any of Jovanotti's other CDs so I can't comment on how it compares, but I really adore it. It's a great mix of hip-hop and pop, excellent beats, very catchy songs, sexy, funky.

This is Jovanotti's best album (Safari is his second best). "Falla Girare", "Penelope", "Bruto", "Tanto" and "Per Me" are the highlilights of this album. The superb musical arrangements along with his lyrics are what make this album one of the best ones I've ever listened to. I admit that his voice is a bit of an acquired taste, but Jovanotti is an artist and this can't be about a lot of mainstream artists out there.

This is a guy who gets what music is all about. Definitely check it out.

I was in Rome last summer when Tanto3 was released and was being played everywhere; when I got back to the U.S. I tried to find this CD, with no luck. I ordered it this summer, and it has been in my CD player ever since it came in the mail. It reminds me of Rome and summer and friends and fun. Some of the songs are a bit cheesy but what can you expect from an Italian pop star? Overall, it's great!

i bought this cd without being able to sample it on this website, but i heard part of 'mi fido di te' on 'pop italia' and liked it very much so i bought the cd just for this song. however, at first i disliked the rest of the cd and simply continued to play the one song. i had to learn to appreciate the rest of this cd and now i do. it's varied in it's styles of songs. overall, i enjoy listening to this cd.
