libelluladragonfly

Libellula translates to "dragonfly". It's a beautiful and somewhat whimsical word that isn't commonly found in everyday Italian conversation or many song lyrics.

In the song, Gazzelle uses it in a poetic simile: "Come le ali di una libellula" (Like the wings of a dragonfly). This imagery evokes a sense of delicate, almost aimless movement, reflecting the artist's feeling of drifting or circling through life, making it a memorable and evocative choice.

Have you ever felt like your emotions were getting in the way of your dreams? In "Milioni," Gazzelle and Fulminacci explore this exact feeling. The singer imagines a life without "stupid, boring, filthy emotions," believing that without them, he would have already made millions of dollars and had better dreams. He feels restless and confused, spinning like a top or a satellite in orbit, unable to sleep and getting sad without understanding why. It's a song about feeling disconnected from your own feelings and wondering if life would be simpler without them.

The song dives into a complicated relationship, possibly with a person or even with music itself. The singer describes getting lost in "you" when he's alone, which feels like looking for trouble. This person stays by his side even when he's losing his mind, but their presence somehow makes him feel even worse. He mentions this presence being in his "first album, in the second album," suggesting a long-standing and deeply influential force in his life. Ultimately, he feels it's easier to disappear than to face these overwhelming emotions, creating a powerful picture of internal conflict.
