Luciano Ligabue has always claimed to have a truly unique audience. Not only "beautiful", nor even just "different" from all the others, but really "particular"; a public whose story deserves to be told.

Emanuela Papini rises to the challenge with a book which began as a testimony to the reciprocal love and gratitude between the singer-songwriter and his public, but has become so much more than that. Because Ligabue is right: in the name of "his people", there is an emotional portrait of a true and marvelous pice of Italy – in a delicate and precarious balance, but perhaps more alive than ever. An Italy made of people who love, struggle, believe, dream suffer, risk, learn, sometimes lose; but who keep trying and in the end, win.

Their daily life is the tissue of a romance in words and music in which we easily recognize ourselves; because it is, in a way, our daily life. In the background, on every page, are the songs of Ligabue: the soundtrack, which accompanies our lives, and, once in a while – magically, changes them.
