About

“Many have thought that my idea of Eternal Love is a kind of ode to love in the absolute sense and a sense of peace and non-violence, as well as eternal gratitude to someone and something. It’s not really like that. At least, not only,” says Roberto Ottaviano. “In life there are inescapable things we encounter that force us to act, not just observe. To respect oneself, to fight, to search, to listen, to defuse but also to denounce. And we must always understand the word love, which can also mean not always turning the other cheek. Humanity is a microcosm in the cosmos and acts in unexpected as well as predictable ways, with Pindaric flights of beauty and continuous plunges into the most horrible abysses, denying itself and thus turning into something inhuman,” the musician continues. “I wanted to collect here a series of ‘live’ moments of the band, which I feel is when we all give our best in the combustion that is created with the public, and call it People precisely in an attempt to draw portraits of this humanity made up of people we have really and virtually met, people who have given us something, their places and their breaths“.
