"La rondine" (transl. "The swallow") is an Italian song composed by Mango (music) and Pasquale Panella (lyrics) and performed by Mango. It is included in the 2002 album Disincanto.[1] It was one of the biggest Italian hits of summer 2002.
In 2024 the song re-entered the Italian hit parade following the cover version performed by his daughter Angelina at the 74th edition of the Sanremo Music Festival.[2][3]
The single release features an a cappella version of "Michelle" by The Beatles and "Nero e blu", an early composition by Mango from the album È pericoloso sporgersi (1982), co-written with his brother Armando Mango.
