ENGLISH 1 out of 2 Small stairway , long, long, long and narrow, narrow where's my little love? I still can't hear the zoc (sound of the sabot shoe), litlle sabot, little sabot along this tiny, rambling road. Where I want to escape, this I'll tell you and believe me. Where can somebody go if tired of crying? Little stairway that climb* up to the sky or go* down to the sea, search her for me, find her for me, bring that brat girl to me. *[he's talking to the stairway, hence the second person]

Non si sente ancora, il zoc, zoc, zoc, zoc, zoccoletto, zoccoletto, per questa stradina sconnessa. Dove me ne voglio andare, te lo dico, e credimi. Dove se ne può andare chi è stanco di piangere? Scalinatella sali in cielo o scendi al mare, cercamela, trovamela, portami quella sciaguratella.

@Pokal777 MORE OR LESS IT GOES LIKE: Little stairway, long and tight: where is my little lover? I can't see her yet with little clogs, on this ruined little lane.Where I wanna go I'll tell you, believe me, where you can go when you're tired of living??
Little stairway up to the sky or down to the sea, search and find her for me, bring her to me, wretched! She fell in love with a painter, which draws goats and speaks foreigner; I carry this pain in my heart and I feel like dying!

@krakatica114 As in the best Neapolitan tradition it's a sad, gentle and haunting love song.
It's basically a first person account of someone looking for his lost beloved one through the streets of Naples ('Scalinatella' means narrow, stairway-like street , typical of the old town)
yes,i'm neapolitan,he sings in my language,and he does well!!! well done Mike,i watched you with Faith no more and Mr Bungle,many years ago,in Milan and Rome,you were really a crazy guy in that time!

is there any italian here?, am i the only one having problems to understand the way he speaks italian? he is pronouncing words like if they were american words. i know he is not italian, but for example when he sung evidence in spanish it was amazing the work he put on it to pronounced it as it should, in opposed of what he did with that spanish song of tomahawk. but what i'm trying to say is that this is a fully italian speaking record and the way he speaks it's just weird.
such a beautiful song

Positano has a long long and tight tight starways to go from the sea on the town, so beautiful a must to see.
Capri has another, but I think the song is on the Positano one.

Quella si è innamorata di un pittore
che dipinge Capri e parla straniero,
ed io ho nel petto un dolore di cuore
e sento che mi uccide questo pensiero.
