The bluesman from Emilia named the song after his grandmother\u2014and had the lyrics written by one of the country\u2019s greatest poets, Francesco De Gregori. The result is a song about home, war, and the longing for peace that still brings entire concert halls to silence to this day.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"border: 1px solid #f1f1f1; padding: 15px;\">\n<h4>Profile<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Artist:<\/strong> Zucchero (Adelmo Fornaciari)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Published:<\/strong> 1989 on the album *Oro Incenso &amp; Birra* (released as a single in 1990)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lyrics \/ Music:<\/strong> Francesco De Gregori (lyrics) \u00b7 Zucchero (music) \u00b7 Produced by Corrado Rustici<\/li>\n<li><strong>Genre:<\/strong> Pop-Blues \/ Italian singer-songwriter music<\/li>\n<li><strong>Special features:<\/strong> Dedicated to the memory of Zucchero's grandmother, Diamante; released in 1991 as an international duet with Randy Crawford<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Die_Geschichte_hinter_dem_Lied\"><\/span>The Story Behind the Song<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Zucchero, whose real name is Adelmo Fornaciari, grew up in a village in the Bassa region of Emilia, surrounded by fields, farms, and granaries. By the late 1980s, he had long been a star, but for \u00abDiamante\u00bb he sought something very personal: a portrait of his grandmother <strong>Diamante Arduini Fornaciari<\/strong> and the rural world of his childhood. He didn't think he could write the text himself\u2014he feared he was too close to the subject and would become too sentimental. So he turned to <strong>Francesco De Gregori<\/strong>, the master of clear, almost cinematic imagery. De Gregori delivered verses of great calm and precision, and Zucchero layered his warm, rough voice over them.<\/p>\n<p>The song was recorded for *Oro Incenso &amp; Birra* (1989), produced by Corrado Rustici. The album finally brought Zucchero international fame: 20 weeks at No. 1 in Italy, over eight million copies sold worldwide, and for years the best-selling Italian album of all time. The album featured guest artists such as Eric Clapton and Clarence Clemons\u2014but \u00abDiamante\u00bb thrives precisely because of its simplicity.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Worum_geht_es_in_%C2%ABDiamante%C2%BB\"><\/span>What is \u00abDiamante\u00bb about?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u00abDiamante\u00bb looks back on rural life in the Po Valley around the time of World War II. The men are gone, off to war; the women keep the farms and fields going. Amid harvest work, dancing in the courtyard, and fear of the soldiers, a great hope shines through: that peace may come for all who live after them.<\/p>\n<p>Diamante is both a real person\u2014Zucchero\u2019s grandmother\u2014and a symbol of dignity, resilience, and tenderness in the midst of hard times. Thus, a personal memento becomes a quiet anti-war song that avoids pathos yet still touches the heart deeply.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Songtext_Bedeutung\"><\/span>Lyrics &amp; Meaning<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Because the text is protected by copyright, we will not reproduce the key stanzas line by line here, but will explain their imagery and meaning in general terms.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Beginning<\/strong> paints a rural scene: a farmyard, music and dancing, the simple life in the countryside\u2014and looming over it all, the shadow of war that has taken the men away. De Gregori doesn\u2019t use grand words; he paints pictures: dust, earth, Sunday stillness.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Chorus<\/strong> He calls out the name \u00abDiamante\u00bb as if addressing her, almost like a prayer. He transforms his grandmother into a radiant figure\u2014as precious as the stone after which she is named\u2014and channels all the tenderness of the song into that single name.<\/p>\n<p>One <strong>prominent spot<\/strong> combines the scent of the granaries with a wish for peace for those who will come after us. Here, the personal becomes political: the memory of a rural childhood gives rise to a simple, universal plea that the suffering of war never be repeated.<\/p>\n<p>In a nutshell, \u00abDiamante\u00bb tells a story of loss and perseverance, of the strength of the women who were left behind, and of a hope that is stronger than fear.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%ABDiamante%C2%BB_im_Video\"><\/span>\u00abDiamante\u00bb in the video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The version in which Zucchero sings the song on stage together with his lyricist is particularly moving.
