"L'anima vola" is a song recorded by Italian singer-songwriter Elisa. It was released on 23 August 2015 as the lead single from her eighth studio album of the same name.[1]
Composition[edit]
The song, written and produced by Elisa, is dedicated to her husband Andrea Rigonat.[2] The strings, as in the rest of the album, are by Davide Rossi.[3] In an interview with Fanpage.it, the artist explained the meaning of the song:[4]
"In the title track of the whole work I talk about what I would like as a woman. The lyrics tell about what we would also like from a man and about the fact that often we are not looking for complicated things but mostly for being heard and understood. I am glad that so many found themselves in what I sang"
Music video[edit]
The official video for the song, shot in July 2013 and directed by Latino Pellegrini and Mauro Simionato, was released on September 15, 2013.[5]
In the video clip throughout the first verse of the song Elisa is framed standing still against a black background, after which she begins to perform some dance steps and simultaneously her body is multiplied with digital effects.[6] The set of the video was the house where elisa composed the entire album, which was demolished later.[7]

The song reached No. 1 on the sales chart on the ITunes Store platform within six hours of its release.[8] The song debouted at number two of the Italian Singles Chart, becoming Elisa fiftheen song to place among the top-ten. Only three weeks after its release, "L'anima vola" was certified gold disc by Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana. On June 27, 2014, it received double platinum certification.
