Peppino Gagliardi has been on the boards since 1963. His career began in Napoli, where he was born, with his group called “I Gagliardi” played on his own name. After partecipating to several Festival di Napoli and Sanremo Music Festival in the 60′s, he finds a consciousness of his own musical and performing creativity.
The artistic watershed was actually the melodic and nostalgic “Settembre“, the first of a long string of hits. It became one of the best-selling songs of 1970, reaching #7 spot in the Italian singles chart. The clip is extracted from the TV song contest program Canzonissima, recorded in ’72.
Lyrics
Tra qualche giorno finira’ l’estate
e sulla spiaggia niente restera’
le ore passate
saranno un ricordo
che noi porteremo
lontano io e te…
L’estate se ne andra’
insieme al sole
l’amore se n’e’ andato
gia’ con lei
le prime gocce
baciano la sabbia
e stanno gia’ bagnando
gli occhi miei
Settembre poi verra’
ma senza sole
e forse un’altro amore nascera’
settembre poi verra’
ma non ti trovera’
e piangeranno solo
gli occhi miei
Settembre poi verra’
ma non ti trovera’
e piangeranno solo
gli occhi miei
e piangeranno solo
gli occhi miei
e piangeranno solo
gli occhi miei…

Very nice sound. I guess we kind of live in our own bubble here in the states. I was never aware of Italian pop music in the 70′s. It does have it’s own creativity and stream of consciousness.
I liked this video very much.It is really very good.
Really Awesome video. I liked it very much.
Keep sharing such important posts.
Gagliardi was a great man !! He achieved two second placings at the Sanremo Music Festival: in 1972 with “Come le viole” and in 1972 with “Come un ragazzino”. His music declined in popularity in the 1980s and 1990.

Peppino Gagliardi won the festival di San remo in 1973 with the song TAMO E TAMERO. He was very popular even in Egypt.

Talented man and I cannot believe I did not even exist when it was performed. (I was not even born)
can’t get much better than this song and this site. A true labor of love. Mille grazziete Sandro.
Peppino Galiardi o cantor injustiçado. A midia da Italia e do mundo deveria prestigia-lo mais. Suas cancões e sua voz são lindissimas.
Vorrei sapire tutti le parole di la canzone fantastica ” L’AMORE “, delle gran artista PEPPINO GAGLIARDI per favore.
PEPPI ancora sei un meraviglioso cantante, la tua voce e conzoni sono bellisime. Con settembre, occhi de mare, quando penso a cosa sei, e vattene,mi sono innamorato ancora piu di te.
