I started humming this song during the cocktail...lol, and the cocktail has nothing to do with Rome !
Probably is due to Andrea Bocelli's song, not Italian either, maybe is his voice that brought back the memory of this lovely song !
Visiting Rome is something I will not forget, I just love Italy as a whole and it is still in my dream to revisit Rome and some cities that I have not visited.
I remember our local driver whose name is Francesco, a bald-headed very shy young man who speaks very little English, he drove us all over the city during our stay there ! And on the departure day, he gave us "Bacio" which mean a kiss...on the cheeks!
Arrivederci Roma is a folk song and everyone in Rome should know how to sing ! I remember we were in this tiny restaurant, enjoying pasta and Italian dishes, an old Italian man with his guitar started to serenade this song ! While enjoying the dinner, we were entertained...and we bought the CD !
However, when I listened to it again back home...it is just not as good as when I was there !
I think I have to visit Italy for the 3rd time and to listen to this song again....funny somehow listening to the song in Rome was so romantic !
