"Emozioni" (lit. 'Emotions') is a 1970 song composed by Lucio Battisti (music) and Mogol (lyrics), arranged by Gian Piero Reverberi and performed by Lucio Battisti.
The song's composition was inspired by a long and much-publicized Battisti's and Mogol's horseback riding trip from Milan to Rome.[1][2] According to Battisti, it 'expressed the sense of discovery, of wonder, of freedom that Mogol and I found venturing through meadows, hills, and rivers, as if we were seeing nature for the first time.'[1]
