The announcement came with a post shared by the two artists on Instagram, and timing does not seem random at all: the song had ended up in the center of the scene a few days ago, when Laura Pausini had announced a cover without mentioning the author. From there the controversy, then the response of Grignani, finally the stroke of the theater. The song will be included in the debut album of the son of Andrea Bocelli, Falling in Loveout on September 12th. “It’s a song that I care a lot,” Bocelli wrote, while Gianluca Grignani said: “Here we are. Finally”.

Controversy

It all started when Laura Pausini announced the release of her new single, also scheduled for September, entitled My story between my fingers. Identical the title, identical the song: it is in fact the cover of the song that marked the record debut of Gianluca Grignani.

The singer -songwriter did not take it very well. With a message published in the Stories of Instagram, he wanted to put things clear: “With all the respect and kindness I reserve for the woman and the great interpreter you are”, he wrote by addressing directly to Pausini, “it is however necessary that I remember that your single is a cover of a song that, if I am not mistaken, I wrote and interpreted”.

The tone was courteous, but the arrow clear. Pausini replied in a close tour, always via social media, trying to throw water on the fire: “I have always loved you and I have always singing,” he wrote. Then he added: “You knew since February that I would interpret the song. Mine was just a tribute. It is so unique that no one would ever allow themselves to copy the title ».

Published in 1994 and inserted the following year in the album Paradise destination, My story between my fingers It has been one of the most loved hits of the Italian repertoire since then. Not only that: the Spanish version has exceeded the half billion listening on Spotify, transforming Grignani into a record case even outside the national borders.

In thirty years, the song was reinterpreted by very different artists: from Ornella Vanoni (2009) to Irama (on the stage of the Sanremo Festival in 2022), from José Augustus to Ana Carolina, passing through Sergio Dalma and Pop X. A sequence of tributes that confirmed the transverse force of the song.

The collaboration with Matteo Bocelli had actually already been anticipated, albeit an anonymous form, in a press release of 26 June last: it was known that Mi Historia entre Tus Dedos It would have been included in the tracklist of the young artist’s debut album, but It had not yet been revealed that the original author would sing it. A news that now takes on a precise meaning. End of the controversy? Perhaps.
