The song was one of the band's major hits, its lyrics were praised by critics for their realism and for their original vocabulary, while the music and the arrangements reprised the style and the structure of Procol Harum's "A Whiter Shade of Pale", of whom Dik Dik had previously led to success with an Italian language cover, "Senza luce".[1] The song marked the debut as composer of Mario Lavezzi.[2]
