I am doing Barbara. Thanks for asking. Recovering from slight sunburn I had last saturday from riding a bike for 7 hours

Am looking forward to meet one of my old friends this weekend.
What's new with you?
By the way, I have this song "Tintarella di luna" from my dad's collection. Would you know what it means?

Sorry for your sunburn...
Here is very hot, are two months without rain..

Tintarella di luna is a 60' song of a famous italian singer, Mina.
The translation is:
"...moon-tan,
milk-white tan,
all night on the roofs
on the roofs like the cats,
and when full moon shines,
you turn as white as snow !

moon-tan,
milk-white tan
makes your skin as white as snow
makes you pretty among the prettiest
and when full moon shines,
you turn as white as snow !

tin tin tin, moon beams ,
tin tin tin, are kissing you,
in this world no one is as white as you..."

that was the fashion of the time, but then Mina has interpreted songs very different: it is considered the number one in Italy for long time
