Claudio Baglioni (Italian pronunciation: [ˈklaudjo baʎˈʎoːni]; born 16 May 1951) is an Italian pop singer-songwriter and musician. His career spans several decades. His melodic and highly dramatic love ballads, especially from the 1970s (such as "Questo piccolo grande amore", "E tu...", "Amore bello", "Sabato pomeriggio", "E tu come stai") are part of Italy's musical and national subculture. His works include the official Anthem for the 2006 Olympic Winter Games in Turin.
