Mia was born in 1947 in Bagnara Calabra (province of Reggio Calabria, southern Italy), but soon she moved to Rome with her sister (Loredana Bertè) and her friend Renato Zero. Both of them would eventually become successful singers too.

She recorded her first records as Mimì Bertè, but she soon decided to change her name to the more appealing Mia Martini.

Her biggest hits were "Piccolo Uomo", which was recorded in several languages, "Almeno tu nell'universo", which is considered her masterpiece and has been covered by several famous Italian singers including Mina and Elisa, and "Minuetto" among many others.

She represented Italy at the Eurovision Song Contest twice: in 1977 with "Libera (song)" (13th out of 18), and in 1992 with "Rapsodia" (4th out of 23).

Her career ended tragically in 1995 when she was found dead under mysterious circumstances in her apartment at Cardano al Campo, near Milan.

Aiutami
Mia Martini Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

E così sono qui,
Son tornata
Senza te cosa mai sono stata
Proprio io
Quella che
Ti disse addio quel giorno.
Gli occhi tuoi sanno già vendetta,
So qual è la realtà che aspetta,

Ero tua, sono tua fino fondo,
Riprendimi con te.

Io provai, io cercai di resistere,
Se son qui è perché voglio vivere,
Son tornata e la mia voce ti sa solo,
Aiutami, aiutami,
Ascoltami perdonami, aiutami,
Aiutami, aiutami,
Ascoltami, perdonami aiutami.

C'eri tu nelle mie notti perse,
Oramai io non ho più risorse
Ero tua e sono tua fino in fondo
Riprendimi con te.

Dimmi sì, dimmi che posso
Piangere,
Per noi due solo tu puoi
Decidere
Son tornata e la mia voce
Ti sa dire solo
Aiutami, aiutami,
Ascoltami, perdonami,
Aiutami, aiutami,
Aiutami ascoltami,
Perdonami, aiutami,
Aiutami, aiutami
Ascoltami, perdonami,
Aiutami, aiutami,
Aiutami ascoltami,
Perdonami, aiutami,
Aiutami,
Aiutami ascoltami, perdonami,
Aiutami.
