Laura Pausini sings Grignani and the controversy breaks out: Botta and response on the cover of my story between my fingers

A small social bickering in the world of Italian music: Gianluca Grignani and Laura Pausini, two names that made the history of Italian pop, exchanged some posts via Instagram on New single from the Romagna singer, one of his version of My story between my fingers, Cult passage written and interpreted by Grignani in 1995 and contained in his debut album, Paradise destination.

It all started with a post by Gianluca Grignani, who did not hide a certain disappointment, after the singer announced the new single without mentioning it: “Hi Laura, who I love you you know,” he wrote in an Instagram story. «I think I have said it in the backstage of your concert at the forum, or on other occasions! With all the respect and kindness I reserve, first of all, to the woman and then to the great interpreter you are, it is however necessary that I remember that your single out (to which, I reveal you, I dedicate my best auspices) It is a cover of a song that, if I’m not mistaken, I wrote and interpreted (My story between my fingers And Mi Historia entre Tus Dedos ...). I wanted to remember it. However, I dedicate my biggest good luck to my song … but above all to you ».

A direct message, which brings a profound link between the two artists clear, but also the need to recognize the artistic paternity of an iconic song. For his part, Laura Pausini has responded with affection, reiterating all her esteem: «Gianluca, I also love you, so much so that I have always seen you and so much that you know from February that I would have sung you again, also this year. You know how much I love your music and with the announcement I made today, I hope I made you happy».

The singer wanted to underline how the song is a unicum in the history of music, with three versions in different languages, and with a title “as unique, like yours”. He then added a detail on the creative process behind the new project: «You also know that When launching a new project each of us has a story in mind to tell it, mine begins with today’s announcement And leaving in September, I prepared a story that I hope you will like ». Finally, Pausini closed with an affectionate and hope message: «Everyone knows that my story between the fingers is by Gianluca Grignani … and It seems to me that my post is designed in a very elegant way to start talking about this beautiful song. I hope that when my version will come out you will like it as much as I like it. A big kiss ».

The song, in fact, has been the subject of several international interpretations over the years: José Augusto in 1996 and Ana Carolina in 2002 made it versions in Portuguese, Sergio Dalma in 2004 in Spanish, and in 2009 also the legendary Ornella Vanoni brought his interpretation. Now it’s up to Laura Pausini, who is preparing to renew this piece in her own style.
