Mi sono commossa, e ho avuto un pensiero di affetto per la tua carissima mamma.Sei bravissimo !
Un abbraccio ripensando alla tua infanzia passata con noi Alda.
Hallo Marco
Ich habe mir letzten Sonntag Abend Dein Interview auf Radio Grischa angehört! Du hast viel zu berichten - das war sehr spannend. Ich drücke Dir die Daumen für Deine EP. Die Musikstücke sind klasse! Hast Du eigentlich den Artikel auf "la pagina" (Ausgabe vom 13.5.) schon gesehen?
Beste Grüsse und viel Erfolg!
Bravo Marco, mi hai sorpreso. Non ti aspettavo in questa veste pop, e non credevo che la tua voce vi si potesse adattare così bene!
Ciao (e non ammalarti più, sennò io mi arricchisco...)
