Excellent pressing - very good sound quality. A timeless Italian-Disco classic.

for a long time now, the correct country of origin has been Europe instead of , as in this example. why is a mystery to me!

TOP Italo, truly Italo evergreen! After so many years, I still love it! Great!

It seems that the "Extended 1993 Remix" on every pressing has a very brief digital / editing glitch at about the 4:15 mark. Thankfully it's in the break, so can be easily corrected in any audio editing program.

Maybe the most commercial italo disco record ever made. Maybe followed by Righeira ‎– Vamos A La Playa.

The "extended dance mix" is actually the album edit, which had not been released in North America. The USA and Canadian versions of the LP feature the single edit instead. I know this because I watched a video on YouTube of someone playing this 12", and I could not tell the difference.

if ℗ 1985 EMI Italiana S.p.A. © 1985 EMI Italiana S.p.A.[stated on back cover] is present this means this release was really in 1985, in my country this single was released in October 1985, so it's impossible we heard it in 1984
