The title means \u201cCome home\u201d, and the song entered Italy's official singles chart at No. 1.<\/p>\n<p>Until then, the group was known mainly as the loud discovery from the talent show X Factor. With \u00abTorna a casa\u00bb, M\u00e5neskin showed a quieter side, and this song made them stars in Italy. Three years later, they won the Sanremo Festival and the Eurovision Song Contest.<\/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;

Singer Damiano David, bassist Victoria De Angelis, guitarist Thomas Raggi and drummer Ethan Torchio first played as street musicians on Via del Corso, the long shopping street in the centre of the capital. In 2017, they came second on X Factor, the Italian version of the talent show.<\/p>\n<p>After the rock songs \u00abChosen\u00bb and \u00abMorir\u00f2 da re\u00bb, the band tried something new in 2018: a ballad in Italian. Victoria De Angelis told Rolling Stone Italia that they had deliberately chosen this song because it showed a side of the band that had barely been seen on X Factor. The four wrote all the album's lyrics themselves, without outside songwriters. The band produced the song with Fabrizio Ferraguzzo, their producer and manager.<\/p>\n<p>On 28 September 2018, \u00abTorna a casa\u00bb was released to radio and digitally. To mark the release, the band gave a surprise small concert in Rome's Piazza del Popolo. The song entered the FIMI trade association's singles chart at No. 1 and topped Spotify and iTunes at the same time. By March 2019, it had been certified quadruple platinum. The debut album \u00abIl ballo della vita\u00bb followed on 26 October 2018 and also entered at No. 1.<\/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%ABTorna_a_casa%C2%BB\"><\/span>What is \u00abTorna a casa\u00bb about?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u00abTorna a casa\u00bb is a song about separation: a man who has lost his beloved asks her to come back to him. Her name is Marlena, and she had already appeared in \u00abMorir\u00f2 da re\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>But there is more behind the love story. The band called Marlena their Venus, the embodiment of their freedom, creativity and life. \u201cMarlena is us,\u201d the four said at the release. Victoria De Angelis described the song as a call to the muse who runs like a thread through the entire album. So when you listen to \u00abTorna a casa\u00bb, you also hear a band longing for its own inspiration to return.<\/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 focus on their imagery. In the first verse, the narrator walks alone through his city; the wind is strong and the houses seem closed off. He finds support only with her, because she pulled him out of a wounded state. He compares their escape to Alice in Wonderland and imagines a life in which time leaves its marks.<\/p>\n<p>The chorus is a single plea for Marlena to come home. It grows cold; the Italian word <em>freddo<\/em> keeps recurring, and the narrator no longer wants to wait. Without her, he fears, he will disappear.<\/p>\n<p>The second verse becomes brighter and harsher at the same time. The light reveals people's weaknesses; he cries and she comforts him. He is ready to take difficult paths and declares that he will turn from a quiet observer into a storm. In the third verse, he looks back on an earlier life as an outsider in which he hurt himself. Marlena appears as liberation from glittering but confining chains. The song leaves open whether the old wounds have truly healed.<\/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 band name is not Italian. M\u00e5neskin is the Danish word for moonlight, suggested by the half-Danish bassist Victoria De Angelis. During a group brainstorming session, she named Danish words, and the other three settled on this one. Its meaning has nothing to do with the band itself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\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=\"Wie_klingt_die_erste_Ballade_der_Maneskin\"><\/span>What does M\u00e5neskin's first ballad sound like?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After two rock singles, \u00abTorna a casa\u00bb slows the pace. Instead of riffs and speed, Damiano David's rough voice carries the song; the band holds back and builds the tension slowly towards the chorus. The band itself offered fans this advice: listen with your eyes closed and your mind open.<\/p>\n<p>For a group that had stood out on X Factor for rock, funk and elaborate stage performances, this was a risk. It paid off, and the song opened the way to M\u00e5neskin's first No. 1 album. The Italian Netflix series \u00abBaby\u00bb also used the song, playing it at the end.<\/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%ABTorna_a_casa%C2%BB_im_Video\"><\/span>\u00abTorna a casa\u00bb in the video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The official music video plays at the top of this article. Director Giacomo Triglia filmed it with the band at Villa Arconati, a Baroque country residence in Bollate north of Milan. The images alternate between the four musicians and dancers Francesca Stelladiplastica and Silvia Bonavigo. The video went online on YouTube on 1 October 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Below it, you can watch a live performance for the music channel Vevo, released by the band in November 2018. Without dancers or sets, you can hear how much the song relies on Damiano's voice alone.<\/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_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=\"M\u00e5neskin - Torna a casa - Live Performance | Vevo\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/y3T56egqXLw?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><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>Available for listening on streaming services:<\/p>\n<div class=\"inw-btnrow\"><a class=\"inw-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/search\/M%C3%A5neskin%20Torna%20a%20casa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Listen on Spotify<\/a> <a class=\"inw-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/music.apple.com\/de\/search?term=M%C3%A5neskin%20Torna%20a%20casa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Listen on Apple Music<\/a><\/div>\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 inw-card--warm\" style=\"border: 1px solid #ECE6DC; border-radius: 2px; padding: 30px 32px; background: linear-gradient(150deg, #FBF8F3 0%, #FFFEFC 55%, #FFFFFF 100%); color: #2B3138; line-height: 1.7;\">\n<div class=\"inw-kicker\" style=\"display: block; font-size: 11px; font-weight: 600; letter-spacing: 0.2em; text-transform: uppercase; color: #8A6B41; margin: 0 0 12px;\">EDITOR'S INSIDER TIP<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"inw-h\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hor_zuerst_%C2%ABMoriro_da_re%C2%BB_dann_%C2%ABTorna_a_casa%C2%BB\"><\/span>Listen to \u00abMorir\u00f2 da re\u00bb first, then \u00abTorna a casa\u00bb<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<hr class=\"inw-hr\" style=\"width: 34px; height: 2px; border: 0; background: #8A6B41; margin: 0 0 20px;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 14px;\">Marlena first appears in \u00abMorir\u00f2 da re\u00bb, a driving rock song full of exuberance.

On 18 November 2021, Cugini di Campagna, the Roman pop group with falsetto voices and glittering costumes, sang a mashup on the Rai programme \u201cOggi \u00e8 un altro giorno\u201d of their own 1973 hit \u00abAnima mia\u00bb and \u00abTorna a casa\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>Behind it was a playful dispute. Cugini di Campagna had previously accused M\u00e5neskin of copying their stage outfits and had already sung \u00abZitti e buoni\u00bb. Presenter Serena Bortone asked them for a message to the band, and the answer came in the form of this duet across generations.<\/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=\"1280\" src=\"https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/piazza-del-popolo-rom-obelisk-pexels-11159046.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"The Egyptian obelisk in Rome&#039;s Piazza del Popolo, between the twin churches\" title=\"Piazza del Popolo \u2013 Obelisk in Rome\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/piazza-del-popolo-rom-obelisk-pexels-11159046.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/piazza-del-popolo-rom-obelisk-pexels-11159046-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/piazza-del-popolo-rom-obelisk-pexels-11159046-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/piazza-del-popolo-rom-obelisk-pexels-11159046-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/piazza-del-popolo-rom-obelisk-pexels-11159046-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/piazza-del-popolo-rom-obelisk-pexels-11159046-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/italien.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/piazza-del-popolo-rom-obelisk-pexels-11159046-1140x760.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/div><figcaption class=\"vc_figure-caption\">The Obelisk of Augustus stands today in Piazza del Popolo \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=\"Rom_die_Stadt_hinter_%C2%ABTorna_a_casa%C2%BB\"><\/span>Rome: the city behind \u00abTorna a casa\u00bb<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>M\u00e5neskin are a thoroughly Roman band.
