As in the previous volume, Dilettevoli eccedenze 2 consists of songs that Mina performed on special occasions or that she recorded and had never released before.[1] The song "Malatia" was released on the 2003 compilation Napoli primo, secondo e terzo estratto, "Il sogno di Giacomo" and a cover version of "Mele Kalikimaka" were included on the 2011 EP Piccola strenna. "Questa e TIM" is an Italian cover version of the song "This Is Me" by Keala Settle from The Greatest Showman, it was used to advertise the TIM telephone company. A cover version of "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" was used in 2003 for a Fiat Panda advertising campaign and latter was released on CD and was included on the 2004 EMI compilation The Platinum Collection. "Fever" was released as a hidden track on the 2005 album Bula Bula, and "La palla e rotonda" has an alternate version on the 2014 album Selfie. "Too Close for Comfort" and the first version of "My Way" have remained unreleased since 1971.[2]

The only new song from the album is "Abban-dono".[3] The official video for the song was released on 6 December 2023. The video was made at the IULM AI Lab, the artificial intelligence laboratory of the IULM University of Milan, by a group of experts who used various modern AI software, including still experimental versions. In the video shot by Eugenio Di Fraia, Mina takes on different ages and different guises, appears in different locations closely related to the visual arts.[4][5]
