"...e dirsi ciao" (lit.'...And saying ciao') is a 1978 song composed and performed by the Italian pop group Matia Bazar. It won the 28th edition of the Sanremo Music Festival.
Background
Often described as a minor song in the band's repertoire, the song marked the second participation of the band to the Sanremo Festival, one year after their debut with "Ma perchè". The band at the time was topping the charts with the single "Solo tu", and decided to take part in the competition against the will of the record company. The song has been described as "a sophisticated song, built on a slow bolero rhythm that explodes into a verse-less refrain". Matia bazar recorded a Spanish-language version of the song titled "Y decir, chao".
