"Dedicato" is an Italian R&B ballad written by Ivano Fossati and performed by Loredana Bertè. It was the first Bertè's single entering the top ten on the Italian hit parade.[1]

Fossati recorded the song in his album La mia banda suona rock. Bertè and Fossati recorded a Spanish version of the song titled "Dedicado". Bertè also recorded an English version of the song titled "Dedicating".[2] The song was adapted in French with the title "Dédié à toi" and performed by Dalida. In 2013, a new version was included by Gianna Nannini in her cover album Hitalia.[3]
