If you’re looking to diversify your taste in music, look no further. Italians have some pretty awesome jams that can be blasted in your car or cried to in your room. Here’s a list of some popular songs in Italy right now for all you adventurous music junkies out there.

1. Potremmo Ritornare by Tiziano Ferro

If you’re looking for a heartfelt song to listen and cry to, this is the one for you. Although, I’m not entirely sure what the song is about, it always makes my heart melt.

2. Sai Che by Marco Mengoni

Another slow one, the sound of Marco Mengoni’s voice makes me smile from ear to ear. The beautiful melody can help you study or join you on a late afternoon stroll.

3. Completamente by Thegiornalisti

This song reminds me American alternative music, drawing me in immediately. The song starts off slow and picks up with a nice backbeat when the chorus hits.

4. Oronero by Giorgia

Giorgia can make almost anyone want to sing along to the Italian lyrics. It’s not hard to follow along and the chorus is super catchy.

5. La Risposta by Samuel Romano

This song is so catchy and is an easy listen. It’s got a killer beat and keeps you pumped up all day long.

6. Libre by Alvaro Soler

They continuously play this song in our café at school, so it plays on loops in my head. Luckily for me, I love this song. Of all the songs, this is the most pop-like radio jam.

7. Bruciare Per Te by Elisa

Elisa is the bomb. If you know Italian pop music, she’s the one you’re going to know. Fun fact: my friend, Rachel met Elisa in a restaurant in Rome and she is super nice! If you just want to have a girl power jam session, blast Elisa.

8. Ninna Nanna by Ghali

I’ve never been a huge rap fan, but for some reason this is by far my FAVORITE song right now. It’s the bomb and is easy to follow along to. If you want to learn to curse in Italian or see what Italian rap is all about, give it a listen.

9. Don Medellín by Salmo & Rose Villain

It might throw you off at first because the beginning is in English, but it soon switches. It’s a fast-paced rap that has a banjo playing in the background. It’s a pretty awesome song, check it out!
