“And then we ended up in the vortex: The black box” is released on Friday 13 December, a special edition, in a limited and numbered edition, which celebrates the Double Platinum certified album that brought Annalisa to the top of the charts. Inside, not only the album in its original vinyl version picture discbut also six 45s celebrating the songs that were fundamental stages in the Ligurian singer-songwriter's journey, from the quadrilogy “Bellissima”-“Mon Amour”-“Ragazza Sola”-“Sincerably”, also in special versions, passing through “Euforia” and the cover of Eurythmics' “Sweet Dreams” in an unreleased solo version.
Annalisa also announced Chapter I of the new narrative, which for now we know will arrive in Italian sports halls in November and December 2025.

It's not just the rankings that say it's a “stellar” season for Annalisa. In fact, NASA has dedicated an asteroid from the main belt to the pop star from Savona: “She has a degree in physics but has left her mark in the music sector”, we read in the sheet published on the American Agency's website regarding the small celestial object, called “20014 Annalisa “. The asteroid named after the singer from Savona was discovered in 1991 by Henry E. Holt. On the American space agency website it is possible to know the technical details and the position of 20014 Annalisa.
After the success of the single “Sincerely”, including the version intended for the Iberian public (“Cuando cuando cuando”), Annalisa regained the charts with one of the hits of summer 2024, the single “Storie brevi” created together with Tananai. The video clip of “Storie brevi”, directed by Bendo for Borotalco.tv, is the story of the two protagonists who, united in a vicious but at the same time romantic game, are able to create a dimension entirely of their own. Tananai and Annalisa immerse themselves in the world of cinema's most famous criminal couples, taking on the roles of modern Bonnie and Clyde or Mr. & Mrs. Smith in their own way.
Written by Tananai and Annalisa, together with Paolo Antonacci and Davide Simonetta, who oversaw its production together with Tananai himself, “Storie brevi” contains the pop and songwriting soul of both artists, whose voices mix and intertwine without fatigue. The beat which from the first note is the protagonist of the melody immerses the listener in an almost dreamy atmosphere, with the protagonists lying on a country meadow on a hot summer day.
Watch the video clip for “Short Stories” below:
After 43 platinums and 12 golds Annalisa is the most certified woman of 2024 and thanks to the fifth platinum obtained with “Mon Amour” and “Bellissima”, she is the first solo artist to achieve this result. With three singles in the Top 100 and five in the Top 200, as well as in the official Fimi/Gfk singles chart, Annalisa is the most listened to female artist on Spotify and the first woman to enter the US Billboard global chart in the top 100. After conquered America where she was chosen by Billboard Italia for the “Global Force” award at the Billboard Women in Music, the annual event dedicated to the most influential women in the music industry, the singer-songwriter brought her music to France, where the hit “Sincerely” was released in an Italian-French version with Olivia Stone and the remix by Bob Sinclar.
On June 15th Annalisa was the godmother of Roma Pride and her latest song is the anthem of the event which turns 30 this year.
