Reception

In a review on Corriere della Sera, Mario Luzzatto Fegiz remarked that despite the recording happening on a tropical island, the sound is not very different from the previous Pooh albums, however adding that "it is precisely the skillful provincial taste of these lyrics that manage to describe the everyday ephemerality, those choruses that constitute the most valuable part of Pooh's overall banal sounds, that give this album good market possibilities."
