Constantin Rossi, ditTino Rossi, est un chanteuret acteur français, né le 29avril1907à (Corse) et
mort le 27septembre1983à Neuilly-sur-SeineHauts-de-Seine).
Sa chanson Petit Papa Noël,
sortie en 1946, demeure la chanson la plus vendue de l'histoire en France.
Constantin Rossi naît en France, À Ajaccio, au 43 rue Feschn 1. Son père, Laurent, est artisan tailleur. Sa mère,
Eugénie, se consacre, en plus de l'atelier familial, à ses huit enfants.
Constantin porte le prénom de l'un de ses frères, décédé en bas âge à la fin de
l'année 1906. Dès son enfance, il passe son temps à chanter et préfère
l'école buissonnièreaux études.
À moins de 20 ans, il rencontre à AjaccioAnnie Marlan(1907-1981), l'une des violonistes venues
donner un concert à la terrasse du Café Napoléon, en tombe amoureux, part avec
elle sur la Côte d'Azur, l'épouse à
Toulonet devient vite le jeune père de Pierrette
(1927-2011)n 2. Tino ayant du mal à trouver un travail stable
à Toulon, Annie demande rapidement le divorce.
De retour à Ajaccio, il devient (grâce aux relations
de son père) changeur au casino, où il rencontre la secrétaire du directeur,
Faustine Fratani(1912-1985), qui deviendra sa deuxième épouse em
septembre 1934. À la suite de l'incendie du casino en 1929, ils
retournent sur le continent dans l'espoir d'une embauche au casino d'Aix-en-Provence,
sans succès. Le couple s'installe alors à Marseilledans une chambre miteuse du
quartier des Réformés, en haut de la Canebière. De repas trop légers en boulots
trop temporaires (voiturier, plongeur, portier de boîte de nuit...), Tino Rossi
traverse les mois les plus pénibles de sa vie. Sa seule
consolation: retrouver au bar «Le Terminus» les étudiants corsesde la faculté de droit d'Aix-en-Provence(Raymond
Filippi, Dominique Stefanaggi, Alfred Albertini, Jean Orsoni...) et chanter
pour ces futurs ténors du barreau ou magistrats de renom
Sous le climat qui fait chanter tout le Midi
Sous le soleil qui fait mûrir les ritournelles
Dans tous les coins on se croirait au Paradis
Près d'une mer toujours plus bleue, toujours plus belle
Et pour qu'elle ait dans sa beauté plus de douceur
Mille jardins lui font comme un collier de fleurs
Méditerranée
Aux îles d'or ensoleillées
Aux rivages sans nuages
Au ciel enchanté
Méditerranée
C'est une fée qui t'a donné
Ton décor et ta beauté

And may all of your daydreams be mem'ries
And may all of your mem'ries be sweet
The weeks turn to months and the months into Years
There'll be sadness and joy, there'll be laughter and tears
But one thing I pray to heaven above
May each of your days be a day full of love
May each day in the
year be a good day
May each dawn find you happy and gay
And may all of your days be as lovely
As the one you shared with me today
May each day of your life be a good day
And good night.

Originally from Manila in the Philippines, I
have been living in Las Vegas for over 30 years now.
In those 30 years, I was a business owner of
my own band, most recently called JAMM, and we performed all over Vegas and the
world until it ended on March 14, 2020, the last performance date at the Paris
Hotel & Casino when all our gigs were cancelled due to Covid - 19.Like everyone else around the world, we were
caught completely off guard.Needless to
say, I had to find another way to make money and stay creative because LIVE
music was non-existent.Outside of music
I was building a travel club business.Which I absolutely loved!But, of
course,
Covid -19 took that out at the same
time.

born June 1, 1974) is a Canadian-American singer, songwriter, and actress.
Known for her emotive mezzo-sopranovoice and confessional songwriting, Morissette began her career in
Canada in the early 1990s with two highly successful dance-popalbums. In
1995, she released Jagged Little Pill,
an alternative rock-oriented
album with elements of post-grunge, which
sold more than 33 million copies globally and is her most critically acclaimed
work to date. This earned her the Grammy Award
for Album of the Yearin 1996 and was

fifteen Tony Award nominations, including Best Musical.
The album was also listed in the 2003 and 2020 editions of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All TimeGuide. The lead single, "You Oughta Know", was also
included at #103 in their 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
Her highly anticipated, more experimental follow-up, electronic-infused album Supposed
Former Infatuation Junkie, was released in 1998.
Morissette assumed creative control and
production duties for her subsequent studio albums, including Under Rug Swept(2002), So-Called Chaos(2004),
Flavors of
Entanglement(2008), Havoc and
Bright Lights(2012), and Such Pretty

by Rolling Stone
Jagged Little Pill is the third studio album
by Canadian singer Alanis Morissette,
released on June 13, 1995, through Maverick.
It was her first
album to be released worldwide. It marked a stylistic departure
from the dance-popsound of
her first two albums, Alanis(1991)
and Now Is the Time(1992). Morissette began work on the album after moving from her
hometown Ottawato Toronto, making
little progress until she traveled to Los Angeles,
where she met producer Glen Ballard. Morissette and Ballard had an
instant connection and began co-writing and experimenting with sounds. The
experimentation resulted in na alternative rockalbum that takes influence from post-grungeand pop rock, and
features guitars, keyboards, drum machines, and harmonica. The lyrics touch
upon themes of aggression and unsuccessful relationships, while Ballard
introduced a popsensibility to
Morissette's angst. The title of the album is taken from a line in the first
verse of the song "You Learn".
Jagged Little Pill was a worldwide commercial
success, topping the charts in thirteen countries. With sales of over 33 million
copies worldwide, it is one of the best-selling
albums of all timeand made Morissette the
first Canadian to achieve double
diamondsales. Jagged Little Pill was
nominated for nine Grammy Awards,
winning five, including Album of the
Year, making the then 21-year-old Morissette the
youngest artist to win the top honor up to that point. Rolling Stoneranked Jagged Little Pill at number 69 on its 2020 list of "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time".
The
album has been re-released twice: on October 30, 2015, in a 2-disc deluxe
edition and a 4-disc collector's edition commemorating its 20th anniversary;
and on June 26, 2020, in a 25th anniversary deluxe edition. Na
acoustic
re-recordingof the album was released on June
13, 2005, to mark its 10th anniversary. A musical stage
productionbased on the album premiered at the American
Repertory Theaterin Cambridgeon May 5, 2018; it transferred to Broadway the following year, and
was nominated for 15 Tony Awards including Best Musical. A world tour
celebrating the 25th anniversary of Jagged Little Pill began in early 2020 but
was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Do I stress you out?
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say, how appropriate
I don't like to dissect everything today
I don't mean to pick you apart you see
But I can't help it
And there I go
jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already
If only I could hunt the hunter
And all I really want
is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance, ah
Do I wear you out?
You must wonder why I'm relentless and all strung out
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I'm frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened
by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the maker
And I am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature, yeah
And what I wouldn't
give to find a soul mate?
Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred? Ah
Enough about me,
let's talk about you for a minute
Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses is falling
All around, all around
Why are you so
petrified of silence?
Here can you handle this?
Did you think about your bills, you ex, your deadlines
Or when you think you're going to die?
Or did you long for the next distraction?
And all I need now is
intellectual intercourse
A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
