About Lavazza, the calendar and Italian music

Photobucket

I never watch TV exept for some movie (although rarely), the Victor Victoria show (it's really awesome, I should post about it in the future) and the talent show X-Factor. It's actually sad to admit but the italian television is very poor and all you see is stereotype shows that offer nothing else than trash. But X-Factor is something different, maybe because of it's origins or because they just simply stick to the point of the show and that is MUSIC, quality music. And they have managed to have some quite important international artist as their guest like Mika, James Morrison, Skin, Tokio Hotel (okay, I just didn't mention it, I do not like them but it's crazy how popular they are among youngsters), Anastacia, Eros Ramazzotti, Take That... and the reason why I'm writing this post is... tadatadaaa...... Tonight's guest is going to be WHITNEY HOUSTON! I'm exited about it because she is really great and I'm happy that she managed to do a decent comeback, her new single Million Dollar Bill is really good. Now talking about italian music instead.. In these days Lavazza has publicated some photos from the every-year's calendar shoot and this year "Italian Espresso Experience" is all about the italian music tradition. Italians are really proud of their music and there are some songs that seem to never fade away from the italian's minds. So this was the perfect occasion to celebrate them, take a look at these shoots. After last year's a little more romantical calendar (take a look at the kissing picture on the right, with Vatican in the backgorund) Lavazza has decided to go back to their usual a bit surreal and bizarre style.
