"Si può dare di più" (lit. 'One can give more') is a 1987 song composed by Giancarlo Bigazzi, Umberto Tozzi and Raf and performed by Tozzi with Gianni Morandi and Enrico Ruggeri. It won the 37th edition of the Sanremo Music Festival.
Background
The song was composed by Bigazzi, Raf and Tozzi during a Christmas party at Caterina Caselli's house.[1][2] Shortly later, Tozzi proposed the song to Morandi and Ruggeri, with whom he had developed a close friendship during the matches of the Nazionale Cantanti ("National Team of Singers", an amateur football team made up of musicians and playing charity games).[1] The first demo of the song was recorded by a then-unknown Marco Masini.[1][3]
The song won the Sanremo Festival and was a major commercial success, topping the Italian hit parade for seven weeks,[2] but received a mixed response from critics.[1][2][3]
