"Perdono" Italian pronunciation: [perˈdoːno] (i.e. "Forgive me") is an Italian pop song written by Piero Soffici and Mogol and performed by Caterina Caselli.
The song was released as a "double A-side" together with "L'uomo d'oro". It was launched in the third edition of the Festivalbar, and it won the competition as the most listened to song in Italian jukeboxes with over 72,000 selections in the 1966 Summer.[1][2] "L'uomo d'oro" instead entered the competition at Un disco per l'estate and eventually placed fifth.[3]
The same year, the song was adapted into a musicarello film with the same name, directed by Ettore Maria Fizzarotti and starring Laura Efrikian and the same Caterina Caselli.[4]
