Adelmo Fornaciari, conocido artísticamente como Zucchero, nació el 25 de septiembre de 1955 en Roncocesi, una pequeña localidad en Emilia-Romaña, Italia. Desde joven, mostró una inclinación hacia la música, influenciado por los sonidos tradicionales italianos y las estrellas del blues y el rock & roll estadounidense. Su apodo "Zucchero" (que significa "azúcar" en italiano) le fue dado por uno de sus maestros en la escuela primaria.
En sus primeros años, Zucchero formó parte de varias bandas escolares. Particularmente significativo fue su paso por Le Nuove Luci y Sugar & Daniel, donde comenzó a desarrollar su estilo único, una mezcla de rock, blues y música italiana. Esta amalgama de influencias sería la base de su exitosa carrera musical.
En 1981, Zucchero ganó el prestigioso Festival de Castrocaro con su canción "Canto te", lo que le abrió las puertas a una mayor atención en la escena musical italiana. Sin embargo, fue en 1983 cuando lanzó su primer álbum, “Un Po' di Zucchero”. A pesar de las críticas mixtas, este álbum puso a Zucchero en el mapa.
La verdadera consagración llegó en 1986 con su álbum “Rispetto”, que contenía éxitos como “Donne”. Este disco obtuvo un impresionante reconocimiento comercial, catapultando a Zucchero a la fama nacional.
La siguiente etapa en la carrera de Zucchero llegó con su álbum “Blue's” en 1987. Con más de un millón de copias vendidas solo en Italia, Zucchero cimentó su

I think of you tonight, et cetera
And so forth and so on
It's hard to live with these et ceteras
That went so very wrong
First you rolled your eyes at me,
And then you rolled a cigarette
And talked about a time that you and I
Would never live to regret
We won't forget
Half the fun was getting there
We didn't think to turn around
Just kept on running faster
Half of me remains with you somewhere
Wonders if you made it down
Still swimming in thin air
Your love was like the peak of Everest
A terrifying sight
Cause once you've seen the peak of Everest
The rest just don't seem right
The sun will never blind your eyes
The wind will never freeze your soul
And everything you've ever loved or
Cared for is beyond your control
And you should know
Half the fun is getting there
You never think to turn around
Just keep on running faster
Half of me remains with you somewhere and
Wonders if you made it down
Still swimming in thin air
Thin air......someday you'll be swimming in
Thin air......someday you'll be swimming in
Thin air......someday you'll be swimming in
Thin air......someday you'll we'll be swimming in, swimming in
Half the fun is getting there
You never think to turn around
We'll just keep on running faster
Half of me remains with you somewhere and
If you ever make it down
Keep swimming in thin air
Yeah, yeah, yeah....
Half the fun is getting there
You never think to turn around
Just keep on running faster
Half of me remains with you somewhere and
If you ever make it down
Keep swimming in thin air
Stay, stay....
Half the fun is getting there
You never think to turn around
Just keep on running faster
Half of me remains with you somewhere and
If you ever make it down
Keep swimming in thin air
Say it yeah.....
