Adriano Celentano released the love song as a single in 1979 on his own label, Clan Celentano, and by fall it had reached number one on the Italian charts. The title translates to \u201eAlone,\u201c referring to two lovers who want to be alone together.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abSoli\u00bb was written by composer Toto Cutugno and lyricist Cristiano Minellono; for both of them, it marked the beginning of a long collaboration with Celentano. The album of the same name spent 24 weeks in the Italian Top Ten and was released as far afield as the Soviet Union. To this day, the song remains one of the Milanese singer\u2019s best-known recordings.<\/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<div class=\"inw-card\" style=\"border: 1px solid #E3E7EC;

Musically, he was searching for a new sound, and he found it in two songwriters who, until then, had primarily written for others.<\/p>\n<p>Toto Cutugno, the composer from Fosdinovo in Tuscany, was himself just at the beginning of his solo career in 1979. Cristiano Minellono, the lyricist from Arona on Lake Maggiore, had been writing song lyrics since the 1960s, including for Mina, the Dik Dik, and the Camaleonti. For Celentano\u2019s album, the two contributed not only \u00abSoli\u00bb but also \u00abAmore no\u00bb and \u00abNon \u00e8.\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>The album was recorded in 1979 at Regson Studio in Milan. The arrangement was written by Tony Mimms, who also conducted the orchestra; it was produced by Miki Del Prete, Celentano\u2019s longtime collaborator in the Clan. The single was released with \u00abIo e te\u00bb on the B-side. Celentano sang \u00abSoli\u00bb for the first time on the Rai program \u00abUna valigia tutta blu,\u00bb hosted by actor Walter Chiari in the summer of 1979. By the end of September, the single had reached No. 1, the album peaked at No. 2, and both remained in the Top Ten for 24 weeks.<\/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 class=\"inw-h\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Worum_geht_es_in_%C2%ABSoli%C2%BB\"><\/span>What is \u00abSoli\u00bb about?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u00abSoli\u00bb tells the story of a couple who retreat into their apartment and shut out the world outside their door. The two of them don't need anyone else as long as they have each other. The conversations and arguments happening outside don't reach them.<\/p>\n<p>In Italy in 1979, this withdrawal had serious underlying causes. The country was in the midst of the <em>The Years of Lead<\/em>, the bleak years marked by terrorist attacks and political violence. That\u2019s why many people hear \u00abSoli\u00bb not only as a love song, but also as a quiet response to a time when people preferred to stay home in the evenings.<\/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 class=\"inw-h\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Der_Text_Strophe_fur_Strophe\"><\/span>The Lyrics, Verse by Verse<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can find the full lyrics on Spotify and Apple Music; here, we're focusing on the visuals. The first verse begins in the midst of their intimacy. The lovers are wearing nothing but their skin, the <em>pelle<\/em>, and they need nothing more than each other to be happy.<\/p>\n<p>The chorus repeats the one word that gives the song its name over and over again. <em>Soli<\/em> In Italian, this is a plural term, so it doesn't refer to a single person, but rather to two people who are alone together. Minellono turns loneliness into a promise.<\/p>\n<p>In the later stanzas, the outside world draws closer without ever actually entering. What is happening out there remains a distant sound, and the couple is not disturbed by it. In the end, the only question that remains is why one should even open the door again.<\/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<div class=\"inw-note\">\n<div class=\"inw-note-label\">GOOD TO KNOW<\/div>\n<p>The album *Soli* was released not only in France, Germany, and Spain. The Soviet state-run label Melodija also released it and reissued it several times in the 1980s.

To this day, the album is classified as pop and Italo-disco. Celentano sings with uncharacteristic restraint, almost in a conversational tone.<\/p>\n<p>It was precisely this blend that made the song a model for the years to come. Celentano continued his collaboration with Cutugno and Minellono; Cutugno himself gained worldwide fame in 1983 with \u00abL\u2019italiano,\u00bb whose lyrics were also written by Minellono.<\/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 class=\"inw-h\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%ABSoli%C2%BB_im_Video\"><\/span>\u00abSoli\u00bb in the Video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>At the top of the post, Celentano sings \u00abSoli\u00bb at his concerts at the Arena di Verona in October 2012, more than three decades after the single was released.

Toto Cutugno recorded \u00abSoli\u00bb in 1979 for his debut album \u00abVoglio l\u2019anima\u00bb on the Milan-based label Carosello and released a Spanish version titled \u00abSolos\u00bb in Spain that same year. In 1983, the song also appeared on his album \u00abL\u2019italiano,\u00bb alongside the title track, to which we\u2019ve dedicated a separate <a href=\"https:\/\/italien.news\/en\/music\/litaliano-toto-cutugno\/\">Song Profile for \u00abL\u2019italiano\u00bb<\/a> have dedicated.<\/p>\n<p>Cutugno was still performing \u00abSoli\u00bb at his concerts in Russia and Eastern Europe well into the 2010s. As a result, the song became a classic in two versions: as Celentano\u2019s hit in Italy and as Cutugno\u2019s signature tune abroad.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><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_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_right wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1277\" src=\"https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/mailand-naviglio-grande-sonnenuntergang-pexels-35619151.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"The Naviglio Grande canal in Milan at sunset, lined with colorful houses and bustling riverside paths\" title=\"Milan \u2013 Naviglio Grande at Sunset\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/mailand-naviglio-grande-sonnenuntergang-pexels-35619151.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/mailand-naviglio-grande-sonnenuntergang-pexels-35619151-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/mailand-naviglio-grande-sonnenuntergang-pexels-35619151-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/mailand-naviglio-grande-sonnenuntergang-pexels-35619151-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/mailand-naviglio-grande-sonnenuntergang-pexels-35619151-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/mailand-naviglio-grande-sonnenuntergang-pexels-35619151-750x499.jpg 750w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/mailand-naviglio-grande-sonnenuntergang-pexels-35619151-1140x758.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/div><figcaption class=\"vc_figure-caption\">The Naviglio Grande in Milan at sunset \u00b7 \u00a9 pexels.com<\/figcaption>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><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<h2 class=\"inw-h\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mailand_die_Stadt_hinter_%C2%ABSoli%C2%BB\"><\/span>Milan: The City Behind \u00abSoli\u00bb<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u00abSoli\u00bb is a song from Milan.
