The album contains some of his most known songs - "Lei verrà" and "Oro" - and two songs in English language - "Love is just a melody" and "Modern love" co-written with Simon Marsh. "Oro" was originally called "Mama voodoo" with lyrics by the singer's brother Armando Mango. Later, the title was changed and the final lyrics were written by Mogol.[2]

Brian Auger provided hammond organ on the album.

Italian singer Mina covered "Oro" on Canarino mannaro (1994).
