Echt schwere Entscheidung welche Version besser ist. Die von RAFF oder von Laura Branigan. Denke die von RAFF ist wesentlich Kraftvoller und am Ende mit dem schönen Beat vom Refrain. Leider aber auch im Radio die weniger oft gespielte Version.

Great song certainly better than Laura Branigan's effort. I love the rap at the end -- it doesn't sound like Riefoli though. Too bad there isn't a legit remix of this -- maybe in of those Italo Disco comps.

My mum was a synth pop and disco addict, so i was brought up with this track. I still listening to it on trips out in our Ford Granada when it was newly released in 1983! And up until about a week ago i was certain this was sung by a female (and i'm talking about the Laura Brannigan version either). His voice has a very distinctive soft note. A total surprise when i saw the music video! Such a lovely track, full of memories and melodies. Good danceable italo club music.
