Background and writing

Gabbani stated that the album was written about what interested him after the success of "Occidentali's Karma".[2] The album was called a "nine-track journey" that "leaves the listener free to decipher the lyrics and question their balance within society".[3] Gabbani wrote the title track "Viceversa" about his girlfriend, Giulia,[4] but said the track was intended as a song about "universal love", or love regardless of gender.[2]

On 5 June 2020, Gabbani released "Il sudore ci appiccica" as a single. The song was sent to radios across Italy for airplay on that date, and many of those stations commemorated the track's release date as "Gabbani day".[5]

gollark: I'd like to note that you can't add stuff to the package manager for everyone to see without Kepler approving/adding it somehow. You would probably need to submit a PR somewhere. Best to actually write the program first.
