The song competed in the 74th Sanremo Music Festival, Italy's musical festival which doubles also as a selection of the act for Eurovision Song Contest, where it placed third in the grand final.[3][4]
Composition edit
The song was written by the singer herself with Paolo Antonacci and Davide Simonetta, a producer of the song with Zef.[5][6] In an interview for Donna Moderna, Annalisa explained the meaning of the song and its conception:[7]
"It is a song about freedom to be: in every manifestation, in every passage of life, in every state of mind. Free even to complain and be understood, rather than being judged or considered hysterical. [...] It is a reflection born one night when I was not sleeping, as often happens to me, and I had this urgency to say, to tell. I felt the need to be understood, welcomed, listened to without prejudice."
Music video edit
The music video for the song, directed by Giulio Rosati, was released on 7 February 2024 through the singer's YouTube channel. The alter egos portrayed by the singer in the videos of "Bellissima", "Mon amour" and "Ragazza sola" appear in the video.[8]
