It's a nice and complicated story about this single.. The idea was actually born during a 'Buddhist' meeting between Ricky Diciotto and Alan Sorrenti (a legendary Italian Pop star). Ricky proposed to Alan the idea of doing a remake of one of his most famous songs: 'Figli Delle Stelle', which was a huge success during the 80's, filed on Discogs as Electronic-Italo-Disco. The lyrics had to be in English though, in order to expose the song to the international public, and that's when Ricky thought to involve Kenny Carpenter so he could help co-produce and write the song together with the talented singer Wendy Lewis.
