Critical reception[]

In the United States, the album was considered by critics a relative failure: Richard Williams, on the Melody Maker, wrote of a "watered-down Battisti".^[1]

They criticized mostly Battisti's poor fluency in the English language, the flawed translation of lyrics, and also the disco-inspired arrangements (that, although pleasant, were not able to convey the spirit and all the nuances of the original songs).^{[citation needed]}
