"Taki" is a song co-written and recorded by Italian singer-songwriter Sarah Toscano. It was released on 23 May 2025 by Warner Music Italy as the third single from her debut studio album Met Gala.
The song, written by the singer-songwriter herself with Alessandro La Cava and Federica Abbate, is produced by Nicola Lazzarin, aka Cripo, and its sound combines a pop soul with Afro influences, evoking the energy of nature. Inspired by Japanese philosophy, whose title "Taki" means "waterfall", the song tells a moment of inner rupture and awareness in an intense and pure love story, where the water of the waterfall, which slides slowly, represents the delicacy and intensity of a deep emotional connection.
On May 18, 2025, the singer-songwriter performed the song as a preview during the ninth final episode of the evening of the twenty-fourth edition of the talent show Amici di Maria De Filippi. Initially distributed only on digital platforms, the song was also made available for radio rotation on July 11th.
The music video for "Taki", directed by Byron Rosero, was released on the same day via Sarah Toscano's YouTube channel.
