Song information


The duo participated with the track in the 1982 Sanremo Music Festival and finished second. The song appeared on their 1982 album Felicità (also known as Aria pura). The closing track from the album, "Arrivederci a Bahia", was released as the B side. For the Spanish release, both songs were re-recorded in Spanish, and the single received a different cover image.

"Felicità" was met with a great commercial success, topping Italian singles chart and eventually selling in millions of copies internationally in March–June 1982.
