"Amore scusami" is a 1964 song composed by Gino Mescoli and Vito Pallavicini. The song premiered at the Un disco per l'estate music festival with a performance of John Foster, and then got an immediate commercial success, peaking at third place on the Italian hit parade and remaining in the top ten for five months.

The song portrays the crisis of a sentimental relationship, and it is regarded as an innovation for the Italian music of the time for its realistic lyrics and for the absence of pathetic and pitiful tones.

It was later covered by numerous artists, including Rita Pavone, Dalida, Jula De Palma, Rosanna Fratello, Giuseppe Di Stefano, Fausto Papetti. It was adapted in English as "My Love, Forgive Me" and recorded by Robert Goulet, Jerry Vale, Lovelace Watkins and The Ray Charles Singers.
