Popular, popular
Popular, (popular)
To speak to a people, an old man told me
Spend days there watching and listening closer
I have to drown in the things I need to say before singing them
I'd like to be this city's fog
To get into every house, even in the shadows
Speak so everybody understands me
Staying a provincial guy who's asked himself questions
Will I ever be (popular)?
Is anyone (popular)?
Someone who can explain to me
Not the fame but the universal language
Tell me to scream if you don't hear me
I speak a language I make up
Then among people I'll be the problem
The problem is I'd go crazy
Tell me to scream if you don't hear me
I speak a language you make up
Then among people I'll be even more the problem
There's no problem if I'm not alone
Will I ever be (popular)?
Is anyone (popular)?
Will I ever be (popular)?
Is anyone (popular)?
I can talk to you or I can talk to the world
How many calls I've missed, I won't hide it from you
But only 'cause I didn't get them
There are no rules for staying in this place
And every night, like every day
In dim light there's nothing that shows you the way
I'd like to lend a hand when you feel lost
I hope my words can be your new home
Will I ever be (popular)?
Is anyone (popular)?
Someone who can explain to me
Not the fame but the universal language
Tell me to scream if you don't hear me
I speak a language I make up
Then among people I'll be the problem
The problem is I'd go crazy
Tell me to scream if you don't hear me
I speak a language you make up
Then among people I'll be even more the problem
There's no problem if I'm not alone
Will I ever be (popular)?
Is anyone (popular)?
Will I ever be (popular)?
Is anyone (popular)?

SONG MEANING

POPOLARE feels like gIANMARIA standing in the middle of a buzzing Italian piazza, hands cupped around his mouth, yelling one big question: “How do I reach every single one of you?” The song is a lively tug-of-war between the dream of being “popular” and the deeper hunger to speak a universal language that anyone—shy neighbor, lost traveler, night-shift worker—can understand. He pictures himself as the city fog, quietly slipping into every home, ready to bring comfort and connection while still keeping his roots as a small-town kid with big thoughts.

Each beat bounces between hope and doubt. He invents new words, begs listeners to “shout if you can’t hear me,” and wonders if he’ll become the problem among the crowd. Behind the catchy hook lies a heartfelt message: real popularity is not about flashing lights but about being heard, understood, and never feeling alone. “POPOLARE” invites you to shout back, share your own homemade language, and build a place where every voice can echo.
