Well, not far off compared to other cultures in the world. I know you're having a laugh there.
But being hands-on has its benefits. You don't lose touch with humanity, for starters.
Himmler was a chicken farmer, and lost touch with his humanity. (And so we have turned the worst performance in Hollywood history into a serious discussion )

Ah yes. Well, anything is possible, isn't it? People can change literally within a day. They can wake up one morning and realise what they need to do, or not do in life. That's life.

This may be the bleakest assessment of the Holocaust, ever. I'm not sure if I should applaud or run away

The song is intended to sound to its Italian audience as if it is sung in English spoken with an American accent, designed to be "Bob Dylan-esque"; however, the lyrics are deliberately unintelligible gibberish with the exception of the words "all right".Celentano's intention with the song was not to create a humorous novelty song but to explore communication barriers. The intent was to demonstrate the idea that while many Italians loved authentic English-language songs, not many knew English well enough to understand what the authentic songs' lyrics meant. "Ever since I started singing, I was very influenced by American music and everything Americans did. So at a certain point, because I like American slang—which, for a singer, is much easier to sing than Italian—I thought that I would write a song which would only have as its theme the inability to communicate. And to do this, I had to write a song where the lyrics didn't mean anything."
If you didn't know, this is what it sounds like when you're singing along to a song you like, but you don't know the lyrics.
