Ti amo come un pazzo is a studio album by Italian singer Mina, released on 21 April 2023, by PDU and Pirames International.

The album consists of 12 tracks for CD and digital format and 10 tracks for the vinyl version. The arrangements were created by Massimiliano Pani, Ugo Bongianni and Franco Serafini. The album was also produced by Pani, with the exception of the track "Un briciolo di allegria", produced by Michelangelo, the author of the track together with Blanco, with whom Mina performs a duet.

Two songs on the album are covers: "Don Salvato'", in Neapolitan, recorded by its author Enzo Avitabile in 2009 for his album Napoletana, and "Tutto quello che un uomo" by Sergio Cammariere, presented at the Sanremo Festival 2003, where it took third place. The album also contains two songs used in films by Ferzan Özpetek: "Buttare l'amore" is the theme of the TV series The Ignorant Angels, and "Povero amore", from the new film Nuovo Olimpo, which will be released by the end of 2023 for Netflix.^[1]

Critical reception

Irene Marri from Metropolitan Magazine described the album as "transparent, indelible and authentic", and also stated that Mina once again confirms herself as a pillar of Italian music.^[2] According to Gianni Sibilla from Rockol, the result is classic for Mina, with some moments of inevitable déjà vu, or rather déjà écouté. But the goal of the singer and her team has always been to create a sound, image and repertoire beyond time and fashion, even if the tempo is a little audible in the voice, which from time to time she breaks, almost telling about the fragility of love.^[3]
