In autumn it is in competition to Premiatissima in the squad «It forces Sects», headed at Anna's Oxa, where he presents three extracts from the album: My man, One more year and The pact.
In 1983 Mogol writes the album In the air, always on music of Gianni Bella, who for Marcella represents the sexy turning of his career. The homonymous passage, with which the singer participates in the Festivalbar, becomes one of the great summer successes and brings back it once more between the first positions of the classifications of sale (over 150.000 sold copies).

Towards the end of the nineties he records with the brother Gianni a pair of passages, It is a miracle and He loves the life, both you unwrap at the commissions graders of the Festival of Sanremo.
The Two-thousand
In 2002, after having signed a contract with Sony Music, it realises a new cd with the Past and present headline, in whose Marcella it retakes some of his historical successes (green Mountains, Nobody never, and so on...), together to three unpublished ones: the ironic one and ballabilissima It Does chic, chosen like first individual and written at Gianni's Bella and Giancarlo's Bigazzi; the second individual The queen of the silence, written by Gianni and Renato Zero and unwrapped at the commission esaminatrice of the Festival of Sanremo 2001; and the shade of the heart, sung in couple with Gianni and also she not admitted to the melodious competition.
In 2004 the singer participates in host's garment in the Festival of Sanremo interpreting two classic big ones of the Italian song as E if tomorrow of Mina and Anchor of Eduardo De Crescenzo. The evening of the «old glories» proves to be most followed from that edition.
2005 bastard Man sees after fifteen years of absence Marcella's return in competition to the Festival of Sanremo in the category «Classic» with the passage: for the occasion, in very ironic way, during the first evening the singer puts a suit on with inscription «Bastard man» at the end of the ungluing on the back. Marcella exceeds all the preliminary heats joining in final and being placed to the 2nd place in the category Classic.
The homonym cd, published during the week of the Festival, contains also Jellyfish (it written document by Mogol), which it is chosen like second individual, and my Time (with text of Pasquale Panella).
In 2007 Marcella takes part from the 57th Festival of Sanremo, with a passage of the headline Forever for ever, sung once more in couple with the brother Gianni who it is also an author together with Mogol. During the final evening the song receives from the quality jury a particularly low voting, which provokes the noisiest protest from the present public to the theatre Ariston. The brothers Bella they will take a beautiful return match really during the days of the Festival, when TV turns out to be the winners by overwhelming majority (30,5 % of the consents) of the sounding announced weekly I Smiled and Songs with which they invite the own readers to elect the song preferred by means of dispatch of Sms. In April in the same year there is published the album that carries the same headline of the passage presented to the Festival and that represents the first work in which the Sicilian singer duets in almost all the passages with the brother Gianni. Between the contained songs we find awful Revenge revenge that is chosen like summer individual.
In the March of 2009 the singer announces that the publication of a casket composed by a cd, a dvd and a book to celebrate 40 years of career: the project still has not still seen the light to cause probably of overtaken problems of health of the brother Gianni.
On September 28 2010 there is published for what all the fans of the singer catanese were always waiting: the print in cd of five of six albums published in the 70s for the CGD, crops in a casket at which the live of 1975 remains outside only the soul of the mad ones.
