[edit] The album
The album contains twelve tracks and the most of the songs are classifiable with the pop genre, even if there's the "space" for some other genres such as in Love Comes From The Inside and I Do 2 Be. Two songs were first released in Italian and Spanish in former albums: It's Not Goodbye and Everyday Is A Monday. The latter was originally written in English and adapted later into Italian and Spanish, even if it was first released in these languages. Important songwriters appear in the credits of the album, such as Andreas Carlsson, K. C. Porter, but above all longtime Madonna's collaborator Patrick Leonard. The recording company (Atlantic Records) promoted the single Surrender more as a dance song (helped by the several remixes of the song) than a pop song. In this way, Surrender was able to reach #1 in the Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play. The same happened for the second single If that's love. In January 2003 the album was released in Europe as well.
Despite all Pausini's efforts, the album did not get the success it deserved in the United States. The reasons can be found in an incorrect promotion strategy followed by Atlantic Records which promoted the album as a dance album. That choice was disliked by Laura Pausini, who asked to have a meeting with then Atlantic's president. During the meeting she asked him to have From the Inside promoted in line with her artistic style, i.e. the style of an Adult contemporary singer. After receiving a refusal to that request, Laura Pausini threatened to drop the whole plan, but Atlantic did not believe her. Anyway Laura Pausini, very self-confident due to the fact that she already got a lot of success in Europe and Latin America, kept her promise and went back to Italy, leaving From the Inside to its destiny. The promotion of the album went on in Europe for some months.
