"Insieme a te non ci sto più" (Italian pronunciation: [inˈsjɛːme a tˈte nnon tʃi ˌstɔ pˈpju]; i.e. "I will no longer be with you.") is an Italian pop song written by Paolo Conte, Michele Virano and Vito Pallavicini and performed by Caterina Caselli. Years later Conte revealed that he and Pallavicini auditioned many singers before giving the song to Caselli, as she was the only one who could deliver a strong enough performance.[1]
