"Mezzo rotto" (transl. "Half broken") is a song recorded by Italian singers Alessandra Amoroso and BigMama. It was released on 31 May 2024 through Epic Records.[1][2]
Background and composition[edit]
The song is written by Zef, Davide Petrella and the singer BigMama, with dance-pop music sounds.[3][4] In an interview with Cosmopolitan Italia Amoroso told that the idea of collaborate on a song with BigMama came after the two artists' performance during the charity event Una.Nessuna.Centomila at the Verona Arena in early May 2024;[5] in the same interview BigMama explained the meaning of the song and the writing process:[5]
"For me writing is the most beautiful thing of all, maybe just after performing live, but I don't know how to write love pieces, at least I thought that was a big limitation for me because love doesn't inspire me at all. I didn't know what to write so I got on the bed with Ludovica [the singer fiancée] and in total panic she was saying "think of something sad, make up that we broke up!". and I was replying, "But I only know how to write real things, not make them up!" Then I thought of when we are far apart, her in Carrara, me in my home, "That sea you look at, me listening to pieces to remember you." Again I only told the truth."
Critics reception[edit]
Vincenzo Nasto of Fanpage.it stated that the song features "clear dance sounds" whose lyrics "indulge in the details of the summer passion experienced by the two women."[6]
Music video[edit]
The music video for the song, directed by Byron Rosero, was released on JUne 11, 2024, through Amoroso's YouTube channel.[7][8]
