Volare Lyrics in English Fabio Rovazzi , Gianni Morandi

Fabio Rovazzi turns the idea of volare (“to fly”) into a hilarious turbulence-filled trip through today’s social-media world. Over a catchy beat, he brags about “millions of views” while still living in a tiny studio, scrolls past people who only “make stories on their phones”, and compares viral success to being forced onto an airplane that suddenly takes off. Every refrain – “Mi fa volare!” – is both a celebration of the dizzy high that likes can give and a worried glance at the ground: “The real problem is how to land.”

Enter Italian legend Gianni Morandi, who plays the bewildered co-pilot of this online flight. He grumbles about modern youth, begs the crowd to switch off their phones, and jokes that he only joined the song because he was “forced.” Together the pair lampoon flashy rented Ferraris, jobless graduates, and even a dog that “goes on vacation” before ditching its owner. Behind the comedy lies a gentle warning: chasing virtual applause may lift you sky-high, but it leaves you wondering where – and how – you’ll finally touch down.
