"Non ti scordar mai di me" was originally written by Roberto Casalino several years ago, then Italian popstar Tiziano Ferro has collaborated on the melody when the song has been offered to Giusy Ferreri. The song world-premiered on 27 May 2008 on the last episode of the first Italian edition of X Factor.

## Music video

The music video for "Non ti scordar mai di me" was directed by Cosimo Alemà and entered the planning of the thematic channels from June 30, 2008. It shows the singer to interpret the passage sat on the angle of a bed. To these sequences are alternated other, in which the principal history of the video is told.
In these sequences Ferreri has shown in the meticulous preparations of a romantic dinner. On the screen sometimes is shown the schedule in which the action develops. At 19.35 Ferreri chooses the suit to wear, at 20.18 it's everything ready but at 21.02 the guest is not introduced yet. The video continues showing Ferreri who becomes impatient, she waits up to midnight, then she eats greedily alone the prepared dinner, as long as 02.16 when the telephone rings. Nevertheless, he is not the man, but a friend of her.
