  • *First Official Collab of the Channel! As usual, Lyrics Below!
    "Bella Ciao" Italian for "Goodbye Beautiful" is a song that I've fallen in love with for years but never really been confident enough in my ability to do it justice, to actually, well, make. But with a bit of poking and proding (and the Release of a DLC for a specific game that happened to feature the song), I finally broke down and recorded a translation I made that I felt hit the original meaning and feeling, although I don't know if any translation can really do justice to the original Italian.
    Spero che il mio canto italiano sia stato comprensibile!
    As for the details on the song it'self, Bella Ciao is older than most people expect as it's so often assumed to be sung by the Anti-fascist Partisans fighting the Germans in '43-45. The song is actually a protest song from the late 1800's hailing from the fieldhands in northern Italy.
    * As for the Collab part, Janissa is a close friend of mine who volunteered to sing the female part for this song and make this song much more beautiful! Hopefully she'll be a part of future collabs going forward!
    Lyrics:
    [Woman]
    I woke this morning, to soldiers shouting
    O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
    Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
    I woke this morning, to soldiers shouting
    And there I found the invader’s corps.
    Oh all you rebels, Oh Take me with you,
    O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
    Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
    Oh all you rebels, Oh Take me with you,
    For I fear I’m not safe here.
    [Rebel]
    But if I die there, as a good old rebel,
    O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
    Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
    And if I die there, Oh as a rebel,
    My dear won’t you bury me?
    Oh bury me here, on this old mountain,
    O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
    Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
    Oh bury me here, on this old mountain,
    In the shade of the flowers pure.
    And all will pass by, by that good flower
    O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
    Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
    And all will pass by, by that good flower
    And they‘ll only see it’s bloom
    «But that’s the flower, of the good rebel»,
    O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
    Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
    But that’s the flower, of the good rebel
    Who died for your freedom!
    Una mattina mi son svegliato,
    O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
    Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
    Una mattina mi son svegliato
    e ho trovato l'invasor.

    Alright, Returning after a 2mo hiatus with hopefully a banger! "Bella Ciao" has been a long-time favorite of mine from a melody perspective and the thing holding be back for so long is making a good English Translation, and my Italian pronunciation. Hopefully both turn out well! This song is also the first *official* collab! Janissa joined on with another friend to help with the backup vocals on "Fish in The Sea" and here she's in the foreground! She sadly doesn't have a channel of her own yet but hopefully we'll be able to convince her to join in on more songs going forward!

      I'll be honest, very rarely ill find a song that I listen to on loop over and over again and woah! Your voice is literally angelic. The female voice is very good as well, but yours is so stunning. Its like it hits you in a way a voice shouldn't be able to. You're so incredibly talented and I would be lying if I said I haven't listened to this about 200 times, lol. Once I get my payment methods set up, I'll donate to you here!

    I love this version! I’ve sung this in Italian, Spanish, but I’ve never found a good English version until now. I love how this beautiful song was used to defeat the fascists in Italy during WW2. I’ll be sure to sing it at school.

    Bella Ciao
    One fateful morning
    I was awoken
    Oh, bella ciao…
    That fateful morning
    My country’s inflamed
    By the swords of invaders
    My compatriots
    Please take me with you
    Oh, bella ciao…
    My compatriots
    Please take me along
    So we could fight another day
    And if I should die
    As a patriotic
    Oh, bella ciao…
    And when I had died
    Fighting for m’country
    Please bury me among my friends
    Please bury me there
    Top of the mountain
    Oh, bella ciao…
    Please bury me here
    On this old mountain
    So I could see my old country
    When all the people
    Walk by our mountain
    Oh, bella ciao…
    They’d see a flower
    Dancing in the cool winds
    Smiling with our new country
    This is a flower
    Of those patriots
    Oh, bella ciao…
    This is my flower
    To those who had died
    For the freedom of our land

      Antifascist rebellion songs are not for one nation. They are for all people of all nations to bolster spirit and drive the will to fight back against fascism. Antifa is not an organization it is a belief system we all should hold. I recommend checking out the Chumbawamba version to get the drive. Perhaps one day there will be an English version with the drive of chumbawamba that is more true to the original lyrically.

    I prefer the original Italian version which is about joining the partisans (not rebels) and fighting and possibly dying for the red flag of labour. This version sounds more like something some spoilt rebellious teenager might like to listen to.

    Okay I really like your music, its really good, but I'm not sure how to take it. Which Side Are You On, Bella Ciao and especially Mother Anarchy, are all very leftist, socialist and workers music. I dont know I feel a very strong southern Confederacy feel to this music, which is as far from socialist and anarchist as you can get. However and this is a big however, I dont know exactly whats going on, something about a second civil war, I dont its all overwhelming, and Im tired its like 2:00 AM. I just wanted to write this down cause it feels weird to hear this music in a southern like version, its not bad, in fact I really like the music, just feels like the history is being lost and meanings being erased. Thats why I would like some context. Thanks.

    Which is just my issue, i know, but it feels wrong not to hear it in an Italian accent.
