Fedez, Achille Lauro feat. Orietta Berti – ‘MILLE’
Last, but certainly not least, we close out with the Grand Dame of Sanremo – Orietta Berti. Here she has formed a common framework with two other popular Sanremo names from 2021 – Fedez and Achille Lauro. The three connected on Instagram the night before the final of the 2021 festival. So, in that moment, this inspired single was born! With Orietta’s operatic range, Achille’s artistic vision and Fedez’ modern rap – we have the past and present of what makes Italian music so rich and diverse. In ‘MILLE’ we get Italy’s take on Grease, with camp-tastic, 60s Summer vibes of light-hearted memories of love and frivolity.
