  • Comment: Editor keeps edit warring over the trivial content in the draft; no, I'm not going to discuss the matter with earlier reviewers, though I'll point out that the earlier reviewer didn't say "stick in what the artist said himself". The song did seem to have gone double platinum, but the article as a whole completely lacks proper secondary sourcing, and 2/3 of the content is the artist's own words and a ridiculously long list of personnel.

  • Comment: That's a bit better than last time, but we still need more and better sourcing, especially for the "Personnel" section, and more information about the creative process of the song (which should be easy to find).

Song information[edit]

In the song, traditional pop-rock instruments such as guitars and keyboards meet many orchestral instruments such as piano, strings, saxophone and other brass instruments: the result is what the press has called "an ambitious return to epic pop".[2]

The song also features jazz influences. Cremonini has described the song as follows:[3]

It's a welcome cocktail for the new album, rich in serotonin and dopamine: the ingredients of happiness and union between human beings. It is a song that wants to be sung, but at the same time it does not pretend to teach singing. It's a song for those who love music and it is, once again, a song for everyone.

The song is a journey into the ups and downs of life and aims to encourage to never give up, because there is always a way to overcome obstacles. In fact, the author has also stated it is a song "written, played and sung without fear"[4] and has declared it is a dedication of love for life.[5]
