Alice gave a concert in Milano last night and in the track list we had two songs from the forthcoming album in September, namely a cover Il cielo by late Lucio Dalla, and a new song written by Mino Di Martino  Morire d'amore . Online has emerged also Per Elisa .  In an interview with La Repubblica she declares as a fan of Tiziano Ferro since his early career: "I have always liked his way of songwriting that is never banal which isn't easy. A common friend introduced us and I have to say Tiziano has been very gentle and available, something I didn't expect." And how could she not include a song by Franco Battiato? "I was listening his Ombra della luce in my car and decided to call him and him to write me another song that would be as beautiful as that. And he did!" Photo by Giuseppe Nicoloro
