The third single to be released from the album Dedicated To The Moon (this sold around 500,000 copies across Europe), Call Me, was Ivana Spagna's biggest hit single, reaching #2 in the UK and the top ten in numerous European countries. Released in 1987, the song also reached #13 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Chart.

The video was actually filmed in Nottingham (England), with many scenes shot around the Ritzy Nightclub.  

The previous single Dance Dance Dance wasn't a major hit, but the Italian singer and songwriter did score a big hit with the first track to be lifted from the Dedicated To The Moon album. Although Easy Lady (see playlist above) stalled at #62 in the UK, it was a major European hit, reaching the top ten in France and Switzerland. 

If you've ever had the opportunity to listen to Spagna's "Best Of" album, then you'll know that is quite clear that Spagna is a pretty talented songwriter. Along with her brother (theo), she also penned hits for the band Boney M during the 70s.

From the mid 90s onwards, Spagna decided to release songs with the vocals sung in Italian. She was very successful in her home country, releasing numerous albums, the first being Il Cerchio Della Vita. In 2003, she left Sony and joined B&G, an independent record label based in Switzerland, and decided to sings her songs in English, once again - I do wish you would make your mind up girl!

In 2010 she released a remake of her biggest and aforementioned hit Call Me, and in 2012 released a new album entitled Four, on which she worked with other artists including jazz/rock pianist Brian Auger and guitarist Dominic Miller who has worked with Phil Collins and Sting.
