(ANSA) - ROME, APRIL 17 - Edoardo and Eugenio Bennato together: the quarantine of the two musician brothers, even if in different houses, has provoked a new collaboration. E 'Reality cannot be this, an unpublished piece to cancel physical distances and to feel (and make us feel) closer to this difficult historical moment. The song written four hands by the two brothers puts into music and words the sensations of suspended time, of this new "world to be discovered", inside and outside of us, because above all today it was not necessary to give up one's dreams, the "whispered words" of a love that it cannot be virtual, to the life that sings its rebellion and cannot be stopped. "Reality is all in this / in the network that cancels every distance / reality is outside the balcony / in the network that becomes a prison / ... / Reality is all to be redone / it is the life that cannot be stopped / and that sings your rebellion ".
"It is a classic ballad, which tells this sort of" dayafter "that we are experiencing, who wants to convey the good vibrations of the future at the door", says Edward, who "assimilates" the new song to his "I will sell", "The island that there is no "ea" Ready to sail ". Eugenio, who wrote the words on his brother's music, continues: "We perceive the reality differently than before: the room is the space in which these days come to life, while the balcony is the place that connects with the outside world. The web, on the other hand, it is for some time now a prison where we risk losing the true relationship: looking into each other's eyes, talking closely. "
"At the beginning I had another idea, then Eugenio, with suageniality - adds Edoardo - wrote a text that really represents the reality of today. Ours is a song of despair characterized by a purposeful melody: reality is to defend the weakest, the most vulnerable, it is the whole world to discover beyond the four walls of the house, it is the love that flutters in the port, so we have to change it: now it is really the need! ".
Although physical contact "gives strength to art, we have focused on the artistic understanding at a distance. Although far away, we have not had difficulty in composing this song, because creativity knows no obstacles. It is a song born in a short time, immediate as the reality that has come before us, "they say. The reality cannot be this is also a video clip, made from house to house: the Bennato brothers have thus added a new "wonder" to their repertoire ("I will sell", "All wrong baby", "It is not love", among the tantititoli composed together) written with the disenchantment that is good for the soul and that will give its contribution to the emergency Covid-19 -the proceeds of the two artists deriving from the song, in fact, will be donated to the Hospital of the Hills (Monaldi -Cotugno - CTO) of Naples.
