"Poetica" is a song by Italian singer-songwriter Cesare Cremonini. It was released on 3 November 2017 through Universal Music Italy, as the lead single from his sixth studio album Possibili scenari.
The song peaked at number two on the Italian Top Singles FIMI chart and has been certified triple platinum in Italy.
In the song, traditional pop-rock instruments such as guitars and keyboards meet many orchestral instruments such as piano, strings, saxophone and other brass instruments: the result is what the press has called "an ambitious return to epic pop". In an interview with TV Sorrisi e Canzoni Cremonini explained the meaning of the song:
The song is a journey into the ups and downs of life and aims to encourage to never give up, because there is always a way to overcome obstacles. In fact, the author has also stated it is a song "written, played and sung without fear" and has declared it is a dedication of love for life.
The music video for the song, directed by Gaetano Morbioli, was released on November 21, 2017, through the singer's YouTube channel.
