Album Notes & Community Reviews

Partnering with lyricist Pasquale Panella after a highly successful, decade-long run with Mogol, the Italian pop icon completely reinvented his sound. The album's cryptic, surreal poetry is brilliantly set against warm, sophisticated synth-pop arrangements, resulting in a mature and highly experimental masterpiece.
