Un'Altra Storia paints the bittersweet picture of two kindred spirits who recognize each other’s sadness at a single glance. Marco Mengoni and Franco126 give voice to that strange form of melancholy we sometimes share with a person who feels like our mirror: together you drink bubbles to chase nostalgia away, yet every embrace on the stairs hints at an escape already in motion. The narrator keeps watching, half-tempted to run after the other, half-aware that every memory, every feeling, belongs to them only “a metà”—incompletely.
As night falls and the city turns into a desert under street-lamps, the song asks one aching question: Why are you smiling if we are both still lost? Time flies when you try to kill it, and what once felt like the whole world is now simply “another story.” The track becomes an anthem for anyone who has loved, let go, and realized that some connections remain unforgettable even when the people walk away. Its tone is tender, reflective, and irresistibly relatable, inviting listeners to relive their own “half-owned” memories while humming along.
