"Surrender" is a pop song by Italian singer Laura Pausini for her eighth album, From the Inside
Contents
The song is sung by Laura Pausini, and written by Dane Deviller, Sean Hosein, Steven Smith and Anthony Anderson.
Surrender was published in August 2002 in the United States, and was part of a project aimed at promoting the singer in America. Atlantic Records promoted the single Surrender more as a dance song (helped by the several remixes of the song) than a pop song. In this way, Surrender was able to reach #1 in the Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play. In 2003 the song was published across Europe, Latin America and Australia where it achieved placings in 40 different countries.
In 2013, Pausini edited a new version for her greatest hits album 20 - The Greatest Hits, in a slower tempo, with an Adult contemporary sound.
Live performances
Surrender was performed during the shows of the 2005 World Tour, World Tour 2009 and Inedito World Tour. During the World Tour 2009 shows, the song's rhythm was changed in its entirety, with a new acoustic version, much like the performance available on the San Siro 2007 concert video. The version present in the DVD originated by Inedito is once again the dance version, included in a medley with "Bellissimo così".
