Straordinario means 'extraordinary' or 'amazing'. It's a beautiful and evocative word that perfectly captures the feeling of wonder and deep affection.
In the song, Chiara uses it to describe how her partner makes everything seem extraordinary, even the universe itself. It's a central theme, appearing in both the chorus and the final line, emphasizing the profound impact of love on perception.
“Straordinario” is Chiara’s jubilant love letter to the kind of relationship that feels both everyday and cosmic at the same time. With little more than “un po’ d’amore e poche regole” (a bit of love and few rules), the singer wonders whether her partner is as happy as she is, even while curious eyes—likened to distant stars—watch over them. The song quickly lifts off into dream-like imagery: walking barefoot, hand in hand, past the sky and straight toward paradise, where the universe detonates in color yet all she can see is her lover’s smile.
That smile is what turns everything around them into something extraordinary. Even when the pair clash (“ci siamo presi a pugni e poi a baci”), their bond only tightens, proving that the roughest years can also be the best ones. Chiara’s message is upbeat and reassuring: if they keep traveling together, getting lost yet never letting go, their journey—this life, and any other life they might meet in—will always end in a spectacular, extraordinary finale.
