Description
As the singer-songwriter himself explained, this was the first song he wrote at the age of fourteen.[3] He had intended to include it on his previous two albums, Pianeti and Peter Pan, but he later decided to include it on his third album, believing it was the right choice:[4]
"It's the first song I wrote, when I was 14 or 15. Being able to include it on Colpa delle favole is a way of thanking myself for nine years.
I wanted to include it on my previous albums, too, but I felt like this was the right one."
