Paolo Jannacci remembers Ornella Vanoni
“Ornella always loved me. Part mother, part sister. She cared about my situation, she was there for me when my father, who was her best friend, died when they were little. She understood that I, an artistic son with a name like that, carried a heavy burden. And I always had to show that I was capable of doing it, that I knew how to manage and carry the baton. She made me feel protected and taught me a lot of things when Enzo was gone. This is why today I feel so empty.” US Paolo Jannaccison of Enzo, a good friend of the late singer.
