Jovanotti wrote a song for Gianni Morandi’s tour
New episode of the collaboration between Gianni Morandi and Jovanotti: the latter wrote “Monghidoro”, a song for his colleague’s tour which will start on April 15th and which tells the story starting from the country of origin. The song hasn’t been released yet but the two talked about it and showed a video last night on TV on Che Tempo Che Fa: Morandi was in the studio and Jovanotti as a colleague.
Jovanotti said he wrote “Monghidoro” as a sort of autobiography of his colleague. Morandi in turn talked about the first time he heard of Jovanotti, when he stole his first place in the charts: “In ’88 we were on tour with Lucio, we had made a record together and we were touring Italy. On Friday the record chart arrives… ‘We will be number one in the charts’… Here comes: ‘First Jovanotti'”. I had never heard of it…”
Here is a short excerpt from the song, published on the television broadcast’s social networks
Morandi and Jovanotti have already collaborated several times in recent years: Jovanotti phoned him after the accident in 2021, proposing that he perform a song he had written for him: “L’allegria”. Jovanotti then signed “Apri tutti le porte”, competing at the Sanremo festival in February 2022, at which he also appeared as Morandi’s guest, and which placed third. In “Evviva!”, Morandi’s 2023 album, 5 songs were signed by Jovanotti.
