He was an Italian singer and composer who was one of his country's most successful singers at the time.

Adriano Celentano is an Italian singer-songwriter, songwriter, actor and filmmaker. He is nicknamed "il Molleggiato" because of his dancing skills. Celentano has released many record albums that have achieved tremendous commercial and critical success. He is often recognized as the author of both the music and the lyrics of his songs, although, according to his wife Claudia Mori, they are sometimes written in collaboration with others. With a glittering and hugely successful career, in both Italy and the rest of the world, he is considered one of the pillars of Italian music. Celentano was also recognized as particularly sensitive to changes in the music industry.
