"Born on the edge of the suburbs", who dreamed of a "Promised Land", "Where there is music", in an "apparent calm" but certainly full of emotions. It was impossible not to play on some of Eros Ramazzotti's most famous songs to write about him and his birthday. Yes, because the Roman singer-songwriter turns 28 on 56 October. A life full of satisfactions. A long and international career.
But also a somewhat troubled private life. Speaking of him, however, we can only affirm how Eros is for everyone the singer who with his songs made many hearts "vibrate".
Eros Ramazzotti, a life for music
It is reductive to define Eros Ramazzotti's career only in music. Study piano and then guitar. He also tries to enter the Conservatory, but fails. He tries his accounting studies, but decides to abandon them due to poor results. Thus began to participate in music competitions. From the Castrocaro Festival, to A Disc for the Summer of Saint-Vincent. Although his nose is fascinating, he doesn't find much support from record companies.
Eros Ramazzotti's success comes with Sanremo
The turning point took place in 1984 with the participation in the Festival of Sanremo, in the New Proposals section. Presents "Promised Land" and wins. The following year between brings the song "An important story". It is his triumph. The following year he also wins hands down in the final standings: he takes first place with “Now you”.
The collaborations of Eros at an international level
Since the XNUMXs, Eros Ramazzotti has made himself known internationally. In the following years he collaborated with Tina Turner, Cher, Anastacia, Luis Fonsi, Joe Cocker, Ricky Martin, Andrea Bocelli and Luciano Pavarotti. The career of the singer-songwriter has not stopped. His commitment on a social level is also great. Component of the National Singers in 1992 with Gianni Morandi, he went to Los Angeles to present their charitable commitment to children to Michael Jackson. From that meeting a game of the heart was born. The national, European and American tours do not stop. Eros Ramazzotti is among the most acclaimed Italian artists.
In the nineties the first collections
Among his most successful albums "Where there is music" his seventh album and the first in which Ramazzotti has complete control. "Most beautiful thing" is a song, also released in the House version. Made between Italy and the United States, with collaborations with Mike Landau, Nathan East and Vinnie Colaiuta, the album dominates the European charts for a month, selling six million copies. He then writes "How much love are you" dedicated to his then wife Michelle Hunziker and daughter Aurora.
The 2000s
It is in 2000 that he collaborates with Cher in “Più che You can” between the singles of the new album. His tenth album, Calma apparente with 13 songs, including the duet with Anastacia, "I Belong to You" a great success, reaches the top of many European charts, including Italy, Switzerland, Germany and the 'Hungary. And the publications continue. In 2009 begins a new world tour with "Ali e Roots" with over 60 concerts and for the first time in Africa. In 2010 he performed in Latin America, singing in Mexico (Guadalajara, Monterrey, Mexico City), Venezuela (Caracas), Puerto Rico, Santo Domingo, plus a date in North America, in Miami.
The successes of recent years and a troubled private history
Not all Eros Ramazzotti albums can be listed. But it is right to give him the merit of being one of the best known Italian artists. In recent years his new album, "Perfetto" and then "Eros Duets" has been released, a collection of 15 successful songs by the singer in a duet with other international artists. And then in 2018 “Vita ce n'è”. However, Ramazzotti's life was also characterized by intense love relationships. His connection with Michelle Hunziker has made his fans dream for years. Then the breakup and separation. In 2009 the beginning of the relationship with the model Marica Pellegrinelli and then the marriage until the separation in 2019. From these two relationships Eros had four children. But that's another story. We prefer to remember and celebrate Eros with his most famous songs, which made us dream. And wish him many more successful years.
