Pop Heart

On October 3, 2018, Giorgia revealed her first cover album recording project on her social media channels: Pop Heart, produced by Michele Canova.^[2][3] The album featured songs from artists or songs which inspired the singer, including American singers as of Whitney Houston, Donna Summer and Madonna, and italian singers as of Pino Daniele, Carmen Consoli, Jovanotti, Mango and Zucchero Fornaciari.^[4][5] The album also features three vocal collaborations: Elisa on "Gli ostacoli del cuore", Eros Ramazzotti on "Una storia importante" and Tiziano Ferro on "Il conforto".^[6]

Fabio Fiume of All Music Italia was not impressed by the project, writing that the covered songs "should guarantee a majestic result, but instead of majestic, in the end, it has nothing at all", describing it musically "empty" because "it does not exploit her wonderful vocal talents" and "does not replace their absence with an emotional charge that makes you not miss them".^[7] Rockol points out that the singer reinterprets the songs "dressing them in sounds that are sometimes completely different from the original versions" with electronic sounds.^[8]
