Primavera in anticipo and Primavera anticipada (English: Early Spring) are the tenth studio albums by Italian singer Laura Pausini, released on November 11, 2008 by Warner Music.[5]

Produced by Pausini with Paolo Carta, Celso Valli and Dado Parisini, the album has been described by Pausini as "a complex album, in which I can completely recognize myself".[6]

It is Pausini's first album of new material since Resta in ascolto / Escucha, released in 2004.[7] The album was described by music critics as Pausini's most personal album to date. Pausini co-wrote each song included in the album, except the track "Prima che esci" / "Antes de irte", written by Italian rock singer-songwriter Gianluca Grignani.[8] The album features the song "Primavera in anticipo (It Is My Song)" / "Primavera anticipada (It Is My Song)", a duet with English singer James Blunt,[9][10] and also includes collaborations with Italian songwriters Niccolò Agliardi,[11] Cheope and Daniel Vuletic.

The album debuted at number one on the Italian Albums Chart and held the top spot for nine consecutive weeks,[12] It was later certified Diamond by the Federation of the Italian Music Industry.[13] The album has sold 500,000 copies in Italy[14] and 1,500,000 copies worldwide.[15]

Its Spanish-language version also won Best Female Pop Vocal Album at the Latin Grammy Awards of 2009.[16]

The album was anticipated by the single "Invece no" / "En cambio no", released on October 24, 2008.[2] The song was also translated in Portuguese with the title "Agora não" and included in the Brazilian and Portuguese version of the album. It also spawned the singles "Primavera in anticipo (It Is My Song)" / "Primavera anticipada (It Is My Song)" and "Un fatto ovvio" / "Un hecho obvio".
