Italo usually has quirky vocals, but this one is quirky by anyone's standards. It's talk sung, in a sort of a "if Marlene Dietrich were clonked on the head and kidnapped by Mussolini during the war" way. And the laugh...it is truly fantastic, in an amazingly strange way. It's not clear who the vocalist is, but in terms of both tone and style it sounds rather like Betty Miranda (probably an outside chance of Finzy Kontini or the vocalist in Mya & the Mirror), but one can't be sure. But when can anyone EVER be sure with Italo? Not fast-tempo, it fits well with the often weird donwtempo afterparty-type music that's become popular this decade. Truly a singular record, in a genre filled with a lot of singular, often one-off records.
