I consider this album a small masterpiece of Italian pop as it is by Eros Ramazzotti, a complete artist, but too underrated.
The album starts with "Noi," a truly enjoyable pop-rock track, but with an Eros too subdued for his capabilities. The only downside of the album are "Un angelo disteso al solo" and "Questa nostra stagione," two tracks with predictable lyrics and mediocre melodies that seem to be taken from some of Eros' old works. However, they remain catchy songs, even if they make the album not exactly a masterpiece, but almost, which is why I called it a small masterpiece.
The album continues with "Io sono te," a masterpiece of this album, a track performed in collaboration with Giancarlo Giannini, who gives his best, with Eros' voice accompanied by a pop-rock base with post-grunge influences, and the song "Fino all'estasi" featuring Nicole Scherzinger, which begins with an introduction of guitar and evolves into a hip-hop track.
"Abbracciami" is a beautiful poetic soft-rock piece, while the next three tracks "Balla solo la tua musica," "Infinitamente," and "Polaroid" are three songs that talk about individual freedom, infinite love, and catchy memories, but a bit toned down compared to the masterpieces of this album.
"Sotto lo stesso cielo" is an excellent track because, in addition to an intense lyric and Eros' perfect vocal performance, the base is a great rock piece with strong alternative-rock influences that constitute a great innovation in Eros' repertoire, while "Una tempesta di stelle" is a good soft rock song, but nothing compared to the previous track.
"Testa o cuore" is an excellent track with collaboration from Club Dogo, resulting in a rap song with reggae nuances and that hint of social critique typical of Club Dogo, and above all, a track that deserves the purchase of the album on its own.
This small masterpiece concludes with "Così" and "Solamente uno," two good soft-rock tracks perfect for ending this moment of lightheartedness in the company of Eros and his band, and maybe with one's girlfriend.
