Singing career

Iva Zanicchi is an Italian pop singer and politician.
The song, however, became a global hit. It was the first record to sell over one million copies in Italy, and global sales exceeded three million. It was awarded a gold disc.[1]
In the following year Solo won in the festival with the song "Se piangi, se ridi".
