L'amore esiste

"L'amore esiste" (English: Love exists) is a song recorded by Italian singer Francesca Michielin, written by Fortunato Zampaglione and Michele Canova.

Certified double platinum by the Federation of the Italian Music Industry, it was Michielin's second solo top ten single in Italy.

During the same days, she also sent a message including the sentence "L'amore esiste" (English: Love exists), leading to speculations on it being the title of her new single or album.

In the same interview, she stated the song represents "a sign of hope, an invitation to think about love as the only way to escape from the dark days we're living in".

[9] "L'amore esiste" was later certified double platinum by Federation of the Italian Music Industry, denoting combined sales and streams in excess of 100,000 equivalent units.

[13] Il Fatto Quotidiano's Michele Monina strongly criticized the song, considering it a clone of Marco Mengoni's 2014 single "Guerriero", also co-written and produced by Zampaglione and Canova, and released by the same recording label.

In 2017, American singer Amy Lee recorded an English language cover version of the song, titled "Love Exists".

"[18] The singer afterwards presented her work to producer Guy Sigsworth whom she convinced to join her in New York and help her recreate "L'amore esiste".

[18] Idolator writer Mike Wass praised "Love Exists", calling it "the best power ballad Celine Dion never sang — albeit with a pleasing twist of darkness".
