"Stessa spiaggia, stesso mare" (English: "Same beach, same sea") is a song written by Piero Soffici and Mogol.
[3] Despite the boycott by RAI and the absence of any promotion due to the well-known events related to Mina's affair with married actor Corrado Pani, the song becomes a hit.
[4] It debuted at number thirteen on the Italian singles chart and peaked at number four in the seventh week of its stay, while the song spent a total of fourteen weeks on the chart.
[1] Focaccia's version was also a success, winning the Un disco per l'estate competition and launching his career.
[6] Later, Mina re-recorded the song "Stessa spiaggia, stesso mare" in French ("Tout s'arrange quand on s'aime", lyrics by André Salvet and Claude Carrère)[7] and in Spanish ("La misma playa", lyrics by Manuel Salina).
