Italian pop singer Laura Pausini rose to fame in 1993 when she won the Sanremo Music Festival in the "Newcomers' Section" with the song "La solitudine". Following the success of her Italian-language albums Laura Pausini (1993) and Laura (1994), Pausini released an eponymous Spanish-language compilation album in 1994. Starting from her third full-length record, she recorded her albums both in Italian and Spanish, with the exception of 2002's From the Inside, her only English-language album composed of new material, and the holiday album Laura Xmas (2016), released in English and Spanish. Occasionally, she also recorded songs in Portuguese, French, Catalan and in Italian dialects such as Neapolitan and Sicilian.
Additionally, her recordings include several live performances, both of her own material and of songs originally by other artists. She appeared in the soundtrack of Message in a Bottle (1999), as well as in albums by several Italian and international artists, including Josh Groban, Gloria Estefan, Fiorella Mannoia, Andrea Bocelli, Elio e le Storie Tese, Nek, Miguel Bosé, Charles Aznavour, and Juan Gabriel. Pausini also took part in multiple charity releases: she was one of the artists performing "Todo para ti", the Spanish version of Michael Jackson's "What More Can I Give" (2003); in 2009, she recorded the track "Domani 21/04.09" as part of the Italian supergroup Artisti Uniti per l'Abruzzo, raising funds to support the victims of the 2009 L'Aquila earthquake; later during the same year, she promoted the project Amiche per l'Abruzzo, for which she recorded a live album together with several Italian female artists, also producing the single "Donna d'Onna"; finally, as part of the project Artists for Chile, she took part in the recording of a cover of Violeta Parra's "Gracias a la Vida", in response of the 2010 Chile earthquake.
