In a bid to contain the virus, the Italian government has imposed a nationwide lockdown, however, Italians are not letting their spirits down. Amid the lockdown, several videos of Italian singing songs from their balconies have surfaced online.

In truth, we sang the Italian Hymn & other songs that are an integral part of our beautiful culture. What they want us to sing, I have yet to understand if it is solidarity or looting.
