I bought this thinking it was an original 80s bit of Italo, but it’s actually from 2002

Not sure if it meets the purists defintion of ‘Italo’ (vs Italian House) but I love that

Didnt discover it until about 5 years ago despite being in the ballyeric trenches of 91

And the b-side

Heard a version of this played on a Lot radio show, but seemed to be an edit (anyone know which?) with just the vocals “be good to me, don’t make me cry baby” repeated.
Bugged me for a few days, then the light switched on.
Already posted in another topic (thanks @howler) but deserves a place here too - belter.

There are a few covers/versions of this out there, but this og is the best.
A slight whiff of pecorino, but infectious Italo/pop nonetheless.

Sleaze classic :sunglasses:
