The first witnesses who entered the room didn't even see the suicide note. It was journalist Piero Vivarelli that delivered the note to the police after having spent a few minutes in Dalida's room. Guarneri and Ragone assume that the alleged suicide note might have been in fact the last page of a document written by Tenco for a different aim. French journalist and novelist Philippe Brunel wrote a fiction book, La nuit de San Remo, in which he dramatizes the arduous search for truth about Tenco's death. Shortly after his death, his friend and songwriter Fabrizio De André wrote for him the song "Preghiera in gennaio" (A prayer in January) where he describes a benevolent God welcoming those who committed suicide in Heaven, in spite of the moral condemnation of the bigots. In 1999, the play "Solitudini – Luigi Tenco e Dalida", written and directed by Maurizio Valtieri, was performed in Rome.
