Stessa Spiaggia, Stesso Mare (song)
"Stessa spiaggia, stesso mare" () is a song written by Piero Soffici and Mogol. Italian singer Piero Focaccia was the first to record the song, but Mina released the song about a month earlier. It is noteworthy that Mina uses the same arrangement as in the original, rather than adapting it for herself as she used to do with cover versions. Despite the boycott by RAI and the absence of any promotion due to the well-known events related to Mina's affair with married actor Corrado Pani, the song becomes a hit. It debuted at number thirteen on the Italian singles chart and peaked at number four in the seventh week of its stay, while the song spent a total of fourteen weeks on the chart. The B-side was the song "Ollallà Gigi", which was written by Vito Pallavicini and Vittorio Buffoli; both songs were performed with an orchestra conducted by Tony De Vita. Focaccia's version was also a success, winning the Un disco per l'estate Un disco per l'estate (translation "A Record for the ...

Various Authors
The expression "various authors" is used to credit creative works which are the result of a collaboration. In English it is more common to describe the authors of such a compilation collectively, for example by saying for what occasion the texts were written or by naming one writer, for example the first one in the alphabet, and then adding '' et al.'' It may be abbreviated as Vv.Aa., which is rarely used in English except by non-native speakers, who look for an exact equivalent to similar terms (usually abbreviated Aa.Vv.) in Italian, Spanish, and some other languages.
