Darkness and then light, at times faded, at times intense, lighten up the abandoned spaces of an old factory, the location of the new video for "Everybody Loves" by TheHuge, Gianluca Plomitallo. Inside the walls of the building, the world takes on different nuances, sounds alternate with words , vibrating between the senses and the heart. Flavours, perfumes, colours, landscapes and flowers with their extraordinary sensorial intensity transform into a new and unexpected state of mind. People and nature meet, woe and happiness are joined inseparably in the memory of the past and childhood. A lost age, but not forgotten, a time that is no longer with us but is very much alive inside. The emotions of childhood, fixed in our mind, are seen to return so naturally in the close-ups of faces, though grown up, when an old teddy bear or a favourite doll come into sight. Everything changes, changed, but, between delusion and hope, stays impressed in our hearts for ever. This is the main theme of TheHuge's new album, out on 1st April 2012. The singer, also on the drums, on bass, on the piano, takes his foot off the brakes, in the name of absolute independence, as well as from a creative point of view. The result is a vibrant opera that matches new pieces with works from the past, like "A Minute Left", 2001, which confirms how life can change, leaving sentiments and sensations unaltered. "I Fear People" then "Those Hills of Sadness" hold strong the bond with nature. The title of this new production takes us straight back to being children: "How Old Are You Dad? 37". The artist asked his own father this question, the way only children do, so naturally and spontaneously, and it comes back to mind in such a whirlpool of memories no-one can cancel.

lyrics
Everybody Loves
Those windows are non more windows
There is no door to escape
Those trees are non more trees
There are no leaves, here no more.
Have a road in the dark
There’re no voices anymore
Everybody loves
Used to be a town, once a town
Where the crowds used to talk
Abandoned cars and bus stops
There’re no shadows form the shops
Worn out posters on the walls
There’re no blood leaks off the nails
