"Stay" is a song written and recorded by Italian singer Elisa. It was released on 6 April 2007 as the third single from her first official greatest hits compilation Soundtrack '96-'06. It was released as the lead single from her the international version of the greatest hits album Caterpillar on 9 July 2007.[1]
The song, written and composed by Elisa with production by Corrado Rustici,[2] focused on the theme of paternal love and the relationship between the singer and father.[3][4]
In an interview with Grazia after her father's death in 2015, Elisa talked about her parents' divorce and her relationship with her him, which often flowed into the songs in her discography:[5]
"I have managed by now to get over the pain of growing up without a father, since he was living with another family. [...] When there is pain that comes back and is very deep, it takes many years to process it, especially if you do it alone. [...] I didn't have a relationship with my father. I also wrote a lot of songs about that. We didn't know each other very well. I write about emotions, things that have to do with my life and other people's lives, but also with my worldview. To process negative feelings I need time and I rely on the universe. And then dance, the movement of the body, helps me."
The music video was filmed by Marco Salom and Elisa in March 2007 in California exclusively for the Italian market. In June 2007 it was re-shot by Joe Tunmer in London for the international version of the video.
