“The Lord helped me”, Gianni Morandi and the accident, the story

Gianni Morandi, recently, presenting his new single - The joy, written by his friend Jovanotti and produced by Rick rubin - he told what happened to him a few months, or the bad accident that forced him to be hospitalized and with consequences that are still present today.

“I fell into a hole - said the 76-year-old artist - I was lighting the fire, a piece of green wood remained outside, and I tried to push it inside. Removing the phone, I also take off my gloves, and the second time I push I end up inside this brazier. Someone helped me from heaven to get me out, Al Bano told me that his uncle has remained in it ”.

“I clung to a branch and threw myself on this lawn, driven by the adrenaline of the moment. I was screaming in pain, it took me twenty minutes to get home. Anna (his wife ed.) Immediately understood that it was serious, and called the ambulance. It was March 11, I'm still dragging it with me. The skin of the hand has been rebuilt, I still can't play, but I am alive. The Lord helped me: I also saved face".

"It had been a while since I had been locked up at home, the concerts had stopped for a while and then I asked Lorenzo to write me a song - the artist told journalists a few days from - He called me a few weeks after accident, last March, and he said to me: 'I have a strong piece, it would look good in your mouth, I want you to sing it'. In a short time, the idea became reality ».

“This song changed my mood. The passage I like most about this single is: 'I need a shot of life. It takes action to reopen the game. The single meant just that for me. "
