Composition
editThe song was written by Jovanotti himself with Riccardo Onori and Christian Rigano, with the music production of Sixpm.[3][4] It has different music influences, including pop rock, dance-pop, blues and flamenco.[5][6] In an interview with Rockol Jovanotti explained the meaning of the song:[7]
"After a period of forced detachment from music I woke up with an irresistible desire to make songs, without conforming to what I was hearing around, without thinking about 'featuring' and 'placements.' In a rather wild and instinctive way I wrote pieces without having any strategy in my head, just the desire to share this thing that was boiling inside me."
Music video
editThe music video for the song, directed by Leandro Emede was released on April 6, 2022, through the singer's YouTube channel.[8][9]
