The collaboration between Agosta and Chiara Castello on the single “For Today” is a compelling meeting of distinct yet deeply connected musical styles. The track weaves together the psychedelic folk spirit of the 1970s with a contemporary sensibility, forming a bridge between tradition and innovation—a sound now emerging under the label Nu-Folk.
Chiara wrote the lyrics and lends her warm, enveloping voice to the song, perfectly complementing its dreamy atmospheres and delicate arrangements. The result is a nostalgic yet cinematic soundscape that echoes the past while feeling entirely present.
The phrase “it is only for today” evokes a deep awareness of the fleeting nature of every experience, emotion, and encounter—transient, yet profoundly meaningful. The recurring lines “for today I feel love” and “today I weep” convey a raw emotional intensity grounded in the present moment—an experience that feels both universal and deeply personal.
There’s a quiet sense of maturity and connectedness in the song, a spirit of shared vulnerability in which each person “lets themselves be found.” It’s as if we are all gently invited to recognize our own humanity, and to be fully present—with ourselves, and with each other.
