Ancora Ancora Ancora
"Ancora, ancora, ancora" () is a song recorded by Italian singer Mina in 1978. It was written by Gian Pietro Felisatti and Cristiano Malgioglio. Overview According to Cristiano Malgioglio, he originally wrote one song for Mina, but at the meeting she rejected it and asked him to write something more "hot" for her. In the evening, entangled in a creative crisis, Malgioglio unexpectedly received a phone call from his former lover, who asked: "And you, do you still love me?". Malgioglio answered "Yes". Another in response: "Tell me that again, again, again." The lyrics were recorded in just two minutes and the very next day he handed it to Mina in the recording studio.

Songs In Italian
A song is a musical composition performed by the human voice. The voice often carries the melody (a series of distinct and fixed pitches) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs have a structure, such as the common ABA form, and are usually made of sections that are repeated or performed with variation later. A song without instruments is said to be a cappella. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in the classical tradition, it is called an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally by ear are often referred to as folk songs. Songs composed for the mass market, designed to be sung by professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows, are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are ...
