SABBA releases the fifth single entitled “Lo Strano Caso della Mia Felicità”, an almost detective title if you want to give it an ironic touch. With this track, this latest artistic cycle of the Neapolitan singer ends, which began ten months ago and which led Sabba to publish a total of five unreleased songs with “Carnera”, “Call Me”, “Portami giù” ft. PeppOh and “Prima o Poi”.
Salvatore Lampitelli, aka Sabba, in this new song collaborates again with the producer Massimo D'Ambra (Guè, Sfera Ebbasta, Gigi D'Alessio…) while for the writing he has established a new artistic feeling precisely with HER, aka Erma Pia Castriotta, transgender singer and violinist, met sharing the stage of the theatrical and musical shows entitled Dignità Autonome di Prostituzione by Luciano Melchionna from the format of Betta Cianchini and Luciano Melchionna.
“Lo Strano Caso della Mia Felicità” combines the power of music with a romantic and desperate appeal to love. The lyrics revolve around the universal concept of “inclusive love” and remind us how fundamental it is to believe in ourselves but at the same time support each other, especially in love relationships during which we find those enigmatic shreds of residual beauty to survive the inner hell. We often cling to life while remaining grateful to those who have remained close to us despite “the rush to die”.
Accompanying this latest single is the video created by the videomakers of iRed and produced and sponsored by PLC City.
