Released in 1970 alongside \u00abEmozioni,\u00bb the song became one of the duo\u2019s biggest hits. Whereas Battisti usually crafted delicate melodies, here an emotion bursts forth with raw intensity.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h4>Profile<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Artist:<\/strong> Lucio Battisti<\/li>\n<li><strong>Published:<\/strong> October 15, 1970, as the single \u00abEmozioni \/ Anna\u00bb (Dischi Ricordi); album \u00abEmozioni,\u00bb December 15, 1970<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lyrics\/Music:<\/strong> Mogol (lyrics), Lucio Battisti (music); arrangement: Lucio Battisti &amp; Gian Piero Reverberi<\/li>\n<li><strong>Genre:<\/strong> Singer-songwriter, dramatic pop ballad<\/li>\n<li><strong>Special features:<\/strong> Double A-side featuring \u00abEmozioni,\u00bb which reached number one on the Italian charts; future members of PFM and Formula 3 played on the track in the studio<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Die_Geschichte_hinter_dem_Lied\"><\/span>The Story Behind the Song<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In 1970, Lucio Battisti and his creative partner, lyricist Mogol, were at the height of their collaboration. In December, the album *Emozioni* was released\u2014one of the most important records in Italian music history: It climbed to number one and was one of the best-selling albums of the year. Even before that, in October 1970, Battisti had released a single from the album that was quite something\u2014a double A-side featuring two songs that would later become classics: \u00abEmozioni\u00bb on one side and \u00abAnna\u00bb on the other. Both were recorded in September 1970 at Ricordi Studios in Milan.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abAnna\u00bb is the closing track on the album and deliberately stands out from the rest. That\u2019s because an astonishing lineup of young musicians gathered in the studio\u2014musicians who would soon become the elite of Italian rock: The lineup included, among others, Franco Mussida, Franz Di Cioccio, and Flavio Premoli\u2014who would soon form the legendary band PFM\u2014as well as Alberto Radius of Formula 3 and keyboardist Dario Baldan Bembo. This concentrated instrumental talent gives \u00abAnna\u00bb its hard, almost rock-like sound\u2014a far cry from the gentle arrangements for which Battisti was otherwise known.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Worum_geht_es_in_%C2%ABAnna%C2%BB\"><\/span>What is \u00abAnna\u00bb about?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>On paper, the man speaking here has every reason to be happy: he has a job, a home, and a partner who loves him. And yet, inside, he feels as if he\u2019s frozen in place, because he can\u2019t let go of someone else\u2014Anna, a past, unattainable love who still haunts him to this day.<\/p>\n<p>The song thrives on this conflict between reason and emotion. His mind tells him he should be happy, but his heart is consumed by his longing for Anna. Musically, this rift is reflected in the song\u2019s structure: the verses remain subdued and somber, almost resigned\u2014until the chorus unleashes the pent-up despair in a cry. What begins as the quiet utterance of a name turns into a pleading cry, hurled out again and again. It was precisely this outburst that made \u00abAnna\u00bb a catchy hit for an entire generation.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Songtext_Bedeutung\"><\/span>Lyrics &amp; Meaning<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Because the text is protected by copyright, we will not reproduce it line by line here, but will instead explain the meaning of the most important images and stanzas.<\/p>\n<p>The opening paints a picture of a life lived in orderly circumstances: The narrator describes his outward sense of security, his relationship\u2014what others would consider happiness. Yet from the very beginning, there is an underlying chill\u2014the words sound like a stock-taking, not a declaration of love for his own life.<\/p>\n<p>In the chorus, this facade crumbles. What previously seemed controlled erupts in repeated cries for Anna\u2014the moment when the man drops his mask and reveals his inner collapse. It is the emotional core of the song, the famous cry in which longing, anger, and helplessness converge.<\/p>\n<p>The images Mogol finds to convey this deal with transience and a fire that continues to smolder beneath the ashes: a passion that should have ended long ago and yet has never been extinguished. The narrator knows he should be grateful for what he has\u2014and yet he cannot escape the past. In the end, there is no consolation, only the stark truth of a person broken by an impossible love.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%ABAnna%C2%BB_im_Video\"><\/span>\u00abAnna\u00bb in the video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>At the very top, you can hear \u00abAnna\u00bb in Lucio Battisti\u2019s official recording. In 1970, music videos as we know them today didn\u2019t exist yet\u2014the power of the song comes through here solely through the voice and the dramatic arrangement.<\/p>\n<p>Below, you can see a special alternate version: \u00abAnna\u00bb by Lucio Battisti in a 1970 television performance (on the RAI program \u00abSeimilauno\u00bb). Here, the young Battisti performs the song in front of a live audience\u2014a rare historical record, as Battisti retired from the stage early on and became known for his shyness when it came to live performances.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"row vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"jeg-vc-wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_column jeg_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"jeg_wrapper wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_video_widget wpb_content_element vc_clearfix   vc_video-aspect-ratio-169 vc_video-align-left\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\" style=\"width: 100%\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_video_wrapper\"><div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe title=\"Lucio Battisti - Anna (Seimilauno, 1970)\" width=\"413\" height=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/I8zZi8a4rTc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"row vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"jeg-vc-wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_column jeg_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"jeg_wrapper wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>Want to listen to the song right away?

Alongside the songwriter who enchanted millions with catchy choruses, there was also a singer who could push an emotion to the breaking point. The almost unbridled cry for Anna became one of the most haunting moments in his entire body of work and remains unmistakable to this day.<\/p>\n<p>The musical context is also noteworthy: the fact that the future leaders of PFM and Formula 3 played together here makes \u00abAnna\u00bb a hidden link between classic Italian cantautorato and the emerging progressive rock of the early \u201970s. The distinctive chorus has left its mark time and again over the decades and was even sampled later on in the hip-hop scene.<\/p>\n<p>Above all, however, \u00abAnna\u00bb symbolizes the extraordinary partnership between Battisti and Mogol, who wrote one classic after another during those years. The album \u00abEmozioni,\u00bb from which the song is taken, is still considered one of the most influential works in Italian pop music.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ein_Lied_das_bleibt\"><\/span>A Song That Stays With You<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u00abAnna\u00bb isn\u2019t a feel-good song\u2014and that\u2019s exactly what makes it so powerful. Instead of singing about love, it dissects the pain of being unable to let go of a love, and in doing so, dares to tap into an emotional intensity that is unparalleled in Italian pop.
