Gianluca Grignani’s father has died. The singer-songwriter greets him on Instagram with a sentence from a song he dedicated to him at the last Sanremo Festival.
Gianluca Grignani’s father has died. This was announced by the artist himself, who greeted him with a post on Instagram and a passage from the song “When you miss your breath”, dedicated to his parents and performed during the 2023 Sanremo Festival. In the caption of the post, the singer-songwriter writes: “And everyone can judge the rest for themselves. Hi Papa.”
The complex relationship between Gianluca Grignani and his father
Gianluca Grignani never made a secret of it complex relationship he had with Paolo Grignani. With him, Grignani immediately coped with his absence, which was mainly due to his constant obligations as he worked as a dealer in photographic accessories. A distance that only increased during the artist’s childhood. Complications were then made worse by the divorce between Paolo Grignani and Gianluca’s mother, Elba. Gianluca Grignani has always described his relationship with his father as “poorly managed”. During a recent appearance on “Domenica In” with Mara Venier, the singer-songwriter shared that “the hardest thing in life is having a family.” He also spoke about his mother Elba, describing her as a strict woman who wasn’t often there when he needed her.
“When You’re Short of Breath,” the song Grignani dedicated to his father
Paolo Grignani lived in Hungary and died without hearing the song “When you miss Breathing”, which Gianluca Grignani wrote and composed together with Enrico Melozzi and which he presented during the 2023 Sanremo Festival up at the Ariston with a song like this, in to whom this buried truth is told. On the most representative moments: “And I didn’t speak anymore, I kept everything inside and put it down, then I thought about it, yes, I thought about it. Hello dad or goodbye dad, I forgive you, my tears are sincere.” But whoever does not, it is he who accepts the truth, and among those who feign sadness, I will be your pride. And then the sentence that she also dedicated to him in the post: “So you know that I still love you and, by the way, everyone can judge for themselves.”
Mourning for Fabri Fibra and Nesli: their father Ivaldo Tarducci has died
And there is another passage that sounds very significant now that Paolo Grignani is no longer with us and refers to the man’s funeral: “Hello, I’m dad, how are you, Gianluca?/No, I am not sick, but when will it happen/will you come to my funeral or not/will you come or not?”
