Nada (born Nada Malanima November 17, 1953 in Gabbro, Rosignano Marittimo, Province of Livorno) is an Italian singer. She was nicknamed Il pulcino di Gabbro (the Gabbro chick).

Her debut occurred, at the age of fifteen, at the 1969 Festival della canzone italiana with the song "Ma che freddo fa" ("But how cold it is"), which gave her a sudden success, also with the Spanish language version "Hace frío ya". The year later she participated in the festival again, singing "Pa' diglielo a ma'" ("Dad tell it to mum") together with Ron (at his debut as a singer); she also took part in Canzonissima, a then popular tv programme, with "Che male fa la gelosia".

In 1971 she won the Sanremo Music Festival with "Il cuore č uno zingaro", together with Nicola Di Bari, obtaining a notable international success. In Sanremo again in 1972 she was third with "Re di Denari". She returned to Sanremo in 1987 ("Bolero"), in 1999 ("Guardami negli occhi") and in 2007 ("Luna in piena").

In 1983 she was voted "singer of the year" and she won the festival "Azzurro" with her song "Amore disperato". Her 2004 album "Tutto l'amore che mi manca" (produced by John Parish, former producer of PJ Harvey) was awarded as best independent CD of the year in Italy.

In 1998 the Italian band Super B gained a notable success with a cover of Nada's song "Amore Disperato".

In 2008 the Italian singer Giusy Ferreri has covered the song "Ma Che Freddo Fa" and published it in the Ep Non Ti Scordar Mai Di Me.

On June 21, 2009 Nada participated in the AMICHE PER L'ABRUZZO concert at San Siro in Milano.
