(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album overall is very solid. It.Pop was a Five Star in my opinion, no song could ever match "Oggi Sono Io"! I'll do a song-by-song review..."La Vasca"-Fast and Catchy-You'll find yourself singing it all the time. "Una su 1.000.000"-Slow-Isn't all it's hyped to be...with cheesy lines like "piu' freddo della neve" and "piu' forte di Godzilla," "il sugo sulla pasta," it's a nice song and all with good intentions, but I don't know why it is so popular in Italy. "Mamma e Papa'"-"Fast"-Very moving and emotional song...for all you Italian kids close to your parents... "Fortuna che non era Niente"-Slow-BEST SONG ON THE ALBUM BY FAR-Amazing-on a par with "Lucciola"-Slow to Medium-Great Song... "Dendedendendenden"-VERY FAST-Don't really get what it's about but it's very catchy "Fuori"-Slow to Medium-Great Song "Milano"-Slow-AWESOME SONG-I lived in Milan so maybe I am biased, I could relate to everything he says in this song! Britti sings of his beloved "mare" to take him away from the City "Il Quadro"-Fast-Good Lyrics but I really can't stand the chorus "Come Funziona Il Mondo"-Very Slow-Really good song...great lyrics "Una Donna Come Tante"-Medium-Kind of a weird caribbean sound at first but then gets back to solid Britti...good song"
