"I Will Pray (Pregherò)" is a song by Italian singer and songwriter Giorgia, for her ninth studio album Senza paura (2013). The song features American singer Alicia Keys.[1] In November 2013, the song was extracted as the second single from the album and has been marketed in digital stores worldwide.[2] The single was certified gold by the Federation of the Italian Music Industry.[3] Giorgia has also recorded a solo version of the song, entitled "Pregherò", which is sung in Italian. Lyric video of the single was uploaded to Giorgia's VEVO account on December 13, 2013.

Background[]

On the recording of the song, Giorgia said: “I sent her the song, performed by me in Italian, even though I didn’t really think she would get back to me. She took some time to try it out and months went by. Then, when we were almost done recording the album, she called. She had it translated and adapted to her, but she also wanted to sing some parts in Italian, which is even more surprising”.[4]
