#alleluia delle lampadine

Basically my sister @gaiayukari85 said “what if Modern AU!Nicky was a summer camp counselor (but the Italian, Catholic version)?” and here we are.
Animatore!Nicky singing and dancing the ‘Alleluia delle Lampadine’ one of the most famous church songs (I still remember to this day).

In Italy, in the summer, most of us Catholic raised kids went to ‘grest’ or ‘oratorio estivo’ as soon as school was over. It (still) is a 8 hours a day 5 days a week camp, taking places in the oratorium/gym/yard of most local churches, organized by the parish with the help of a few ‘animatori’ (basically counselors, kids barely older than those attending the camp). I personally went from 7 to 14 years old and then became animatrice myself for 3-4 years. I still remember all the songs, the daily trips, the games and the stupid shit we did.

If you want to listen to the song, I found it sang by an Italian singer (Riccardo Zanotti of Pinguini Tattici Nucleari) on radio. It’s a reedition of what basically is a church chorus.
