Lungo ritorno a casa is taken from Alice's 1992 album Mezzogiorno sulle Alpi, and it also appears on her official greatest hits Viaggiatrice solitaria that was her last album with EMI in 1995. This came after EMI has previously released a compilation Il vento caldo dell'estate that Alice didn't approve, especially as it included a disco remix of the title song she had nothing to do with.
Lungo ritorno a casa, witten by Alice, France Battiato and Rosario Cosentino is another album track that I have always loved for it's original arrangement, beautiful melody and lyrics. All of it in fact! But as far as I know she's never performed it live in her tours.
Ritrovi ancora nel silenzio gli anni della primavera.
Thus nostalgia is reborn in you: discovering your past.
You still find in the silence the years of spring.
