The first single from the album, "Follia d'amore", was the winner of the 61st Sanremo Music Festival in the newcomer artists' section and also won the Critics' "Mia Martini" Award for newcomers.[8] It was chosen by a specific jury among the participants at the Sanremo Festival to be the Italian entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 in Düsseldorf, Germany.[9][10] It was the first Italian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest in 14 years since 1997. The song, performed in both Italian and English with the translated title "Madness of Love", came in second place.[11] Other singles from the album were "A Three Second Breath",[12] "Calda estate (dove sei)",[13] "Love Goes Down Slow"[14] and "Zuccherino dolce".[15]
