Born in Cavriago, Berti began her career in 1962 and had her first success in 1965 with the song "Tu sei quello" (You're the one), which won the music contest Un disco per l'estate [2] and ranked second in the Italian hit parade. [3] Several songs of hers, such as "Fin che la barca va" (As long as the boat goes), were not only commercial hits but also became instant classics in Italy. [2] She entered the Sanremo Music Festival competition 11 times between 1966 and 1992, [2] and returned a 12th time in 2021, after a 29-year break, one of the longest between two participations of the same artist in the history of the contest. In 2021 Fedez, Achille Lauro and Orietta Berti published summer hit "Mille"'. With it, Orietta Berti came again at the first position of Top Chart Singles FIMI 56 years after "Tu sei quello".
