Despite the fact that the song was aired back in June, it was released as a single only in December,[3] so it reached only number 17 on the chart.[4] In 2021, the song received a gold certificate from Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana for digital sales since 2009.[5]
The B-side was the song "Tu non credi più" (words by Alberto Testa and Mogol, music by Tony Renis, arranged by Augusto Martelli), which in 1967 was performed by Mina in the program Sabato sera and later included in the album Sabato sera – Studio Uno '67.
