L'amore is the debut single of Sonohra, with which they won the Sanremo Music Festival 2008 in the category "Giovani".
The lyrics were written by Luca Fainello together with their producer Roberto Tini, while the music was arranged by Diego Fainello.
The single debuted in the charts of digital downloads on the Italian iTunes directly at the 6th spot the week after their victory at Sanremo.
The video of the song was filmed in Ireland on the Cliffs of Moher, by the director Antonella Schioppa.
During and interview given by Radio Touring 104 a few days before the Sanremo Music Festival 2008, Luca Fainello revealed that the song talked of a love between him and an English girl he met while they were still playing in pubs before their music became known. A few days after having met her, the girl returned to England and Luca lost contact with her.
This song has been translated into Spanish and released on Sonohra's Spanish CD Libres with the title Buscando L'amor. It has also been translated into English with the title Love is Here and released on the Brazilian CD Love Show and the Japanese CD L'Amore
Tiziano Ferro (born February 21, 1980 in Latina) is an Italian pop singer. He achieved fame in 2001 and during his career he has also sung in Spanish, English, French and Portuguese.
Ferro's interest in music was born when he received a toy keyboard as a present, which was used to compose his first songs when he was seven. He later started taking guitar and piano classes at a local conservatory of music. When he was 16 years-old, he joined a gospel choir and during the same years, he started performing in piano bars and karaoke contests.
In 1997, Ferro participated in the "Accademia della Canzone di Sanremo", a music contest created with the purpose to choose the contestants of the Sanremo Music Festival, but was eliminated during the first stage of the competition. The following year, Ferro participated again in the same contest, and despite being chosen as one of the 12 finalists, he did not make it to win the competition. However, during the selections, Ferro met music producers Alberto Salerno and Mara Maionchi, and started to collaborate with them.
