    For those of you who are in the dark...
    Living So Italian was meant for WTT. It was apart of the first version of the album. It contains a sample of Andrea Bocelli's Con te Partiro:

    It wasn't released on the final as sample clearance was a big factor.
    Few Lucky fans went to the listening session with Jay-Z have heard it.
    They and news outlets present described it as:

    "LIVING SO ITALIAN... f---ing amazinggggg... samples POR TI VOLARE!!!! no dj pauly d ... its just a really laid back fun song and its super good i really really liked it they just rap over por ti volare basically "

    " Back to stunting! A sample of Andrea Bocelli's schmaltzy "Con Te Partirò" gets sped down and mangled into an improbably heavy groove as Jay-Z and Kanye tout their international lifestyle in slick verses. The phrase they chant during the chorus, and presumably the working title for this one, is "Living So Italian." Very catchy. "It was actually fun for us," Jay later explained of this track. "We were laughing.""

    "During the hilarious, audacious "Italian Living," which features a sample of Andrea Bocelli's "Con Te Partirò" of all things. The tracks were unfinished and lyrics subject to change, but one memorable #hashtag rap couplet from Kanye on the same song: "I'm about to say something crazy / John Galliano.""

    "- This was the "Por ti Volare"... rapped over a loop of the vocals and everything
    - Heavy hitting drum beats over the sample after about a few seconds into the track
    - Chorus: "Living So Italian, whole family's here cause it's feeling like a movie"
    - "Wrote this song on the crapper" - Ye... thanks for that line Ye...
    - EPIC b-----r!!!!!"


    DJ Troublesome, a known forum poster made his version of what he thought the beat would sound like.
