Background

Conception

"We'll Live It All Again (lo rivivrei)" was composed by Detto Mariano with lyrics written by Albano Carrisi and Romina Power and recorded by themselves as Al Bano and Romina Power. The song is a love duet sung from the perspective of a married couple addressing each other. They recall their first kiss and their early relationship and later sing about their pride at having a daughter together. They tell each other that they would each "live it all again" and if this were the case, "I'd always choose you again".[1]

In addition to the English-Italian version, they recorded the song in Italian –as "E fu subito amore"–, in French –"T'aimer encore une fois"–, in Spanish –"Viviremos todo de nuevo"–, in English-Italian-French, and in English-Spanish.[1] In 1982, they re-recorded the song for their Spanish language album Felicidad with new lyrics and retitled "Vivirlo otra vez".
