"Tu bella ca lu tieni lu pettu tundu" is a popular Neapolitan song composed by Giuseppe De Vittorio. The song was first premiered in the early 20th century and has since become a classic in the Neapolitan music genre. The song is composed of three movements, each with its own distinct characteristics. The first movement is a slow and melancholic introduction that sets the tone for the rest of the song. The second movement is more upbeat and lively, with a faster tempo and a more energetic melody. The third movement is a return to the slower, more contemplative mood of the first movement, bringing the song to a gentle and peaceful conclusion. The lyrics of "Tu bella ca lu tieni lu pettu tundu" are a tribute to the beauty of a woman, praising her for her physical and emotional qualities. The title of the song translates to "You beautiful one with the firm chest," referring to the woman's physical attributes. However, the lyrics also speak to the woman's inner beauty, describing her as kind, gentle, and loving. The melody of the song is simple and catchy, with a memorable chorus that is easy to sing along to. The use of traditional Neapolitan instruments, such as the mandolin and guitar, gives the song a distinctly Italian flavor. The song has been covered by many artists over the years, both in Italy and around the world, and remains a beloved classic of the Neapolitan music tradition.
