Probably my favorite English/non-English song in the universe. For anyone who doesn't know the infectious magnificence... (to coin a phrase)

MTV-style version:

(that's Adriano Celentano's amazing wife btw, on harmonica, Claudi Mori)

Long-form B&W-style art/singing/dancing piece:

(understandable if you skip to 2:12, where the video kicks in)
(and then check out a bit early, where was some rapper hacks in, oops)

I showed it to my wife and she did not get it. Then I played her the song. She has heard it before but this time she started thinking she was stroking out during an aphasia induced panic attack. So that was fun.

JohnnyEnzyme'a comment is an excellent breakdown of everything. But the quick and short is that is an Italian / English inside joke from five decades ago.
