Composition

edit

The song was the first artistic collaboration between Cremoni and Jovanotti, whos also wrote the lyrics.[3][4] In an interview with Rockol Cremonini explained the meaning of thes song:[5]

"When I listened to the two unreleased tracks in the collection, "Mondo", made together with Jovanotti, "Hello!" with Malika Ayane, I realized that it was the only time my voice had changed. That made me think that it was the right time to look back and reread everything that had happened from the beginnings to now, and in ten years I have discovered so many things, both in the world of music and in my inner world, and I have always remained enthusiastic about everything. Today I think I have somehow found a balance that I hope to bring with me to future records as well."
