This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

For anyone wondering, Adriano Celentano isn't a one hit wonder, he's one of Italy's most celebrated artists who still goes on TV to this day.

He's got some cracking hits like Azzuro, which is a wistful song about missed connections and watching life go by. It's basically Italy's unofficial national anthem at this point (read: what Men At Work is to Australians). I recently found out that Die Toten Hosen did a half-decent cover of it too.

There's also this fun but somewhat baudy animation for one of his songs, featuring uh... sexy ducks? The song is cracking though, and the animation is amazing: Che T'aggia Di'

Very accurate, my exact reaction every time I hear this song!
