I nomi veri di 150 cantanti famosi in tutto il mondo

Sono solo alcuni dei nomi attraverso cui identifichiamo e conosciamo un cantante. Nomi d’arte, soprannomi, abbreviativi. Ci sono diverse modalità attraverso cui poter scegliere il nome con cui cercare di ottenere un successo internazionale. Oggi, dopo il salto, vi elenchiamo centocinquanta artisti con il loro nome reale, quello di battesimo. E, secondo me, alcuni non li sapevate. Mi sbaglio?

P.s. Ma vogliamo mettere la meraviglia di certi nomi? Pensate, ad esempio, dire “Give Me All Your Luvin” di Madonna feat. M.I.A. e Nicki Minaj. Non sarebbe molto più chiedere ad un negoziante “Mi scusi ha “Give me all your luvin” di Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone featuring Mathangi “Maya” Aruplrpragasam e Onika Maraj?” Cioè, meraviglia allo stato puro. Ora mentre leggo il post, mi ascolto l’album di Dido Florian Cloud De Bounevialle O’Malley Armstrong.

Ve lo dico, potrei andare avanti per ore…
