"Perdono" (also released under the title "Xdono") is a 2001 song recorded by Italian singer Tiziano Ferro.

Released on May 26, 2001, it was the singer's debut single and lead one from his album Rosso Relativo, which was released four months later. Based on a sample of R. Kelly's song 'Did You Ever Think',[1] it achieved huge success in many European countries and even topped the charts in the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Austria and Belgium (Wallonia).

The song, considered as "sweet and melodious" in its Franco-Italian version, was much aired on radio in France.[2] The music video was directed by Matteo Pellegrini.
