Overview

• On September 19, Gianluca Grignani and co-writer Massimo Luca mandated lawyer Giorgio Tramacere and sent a formal diffida alleging their song’s meaning was overturned by Pausini’s version.
• The dispute centers on a change from “che ho sbagliato” to “che hai sbagliato,” which the authors argue flips a plea for forgiveness into an accusation.
• Grignani says he was not shown the modified recording before release and learned of the changes from fans after the single came out on September 12 as the lead track from Io canto 2.
• Pausini’s entourage denies wrongdoing, says the necessary authorizations were secured, and calls the controversy “ridicola.”
• If the authors’ view is upheld, possible actions discussed include seeking an injunction to pull the track from streaming platforms or pursuing financial damages.
