'True Love' from Silvio Berlusconi may be the first ever album of love songs created by a former Prime Minister. The disgraced former Italian PM recently released the album during his last day in office this past week.
Political figures as pop culture icons is nothing new, but I can't remember the last time a politician created an entire album. Berlusconi was known for being a ladies man, and his singing skills were said to come out at private parties and events. Still, releasing an album filled with love songs during your last day in office is a bold move. Here's hoping 'Love Songs' from Silvio Berlusconi inspires other politicians to show their musical skills, perhaps for fund-raising or charity purposes. I would kill to hear tracks form a Congressional all-star band.
