    I'm listening to Eyes by Clio, and it's not bad. I will probably get to the others eventually.

    I'm thinking of a song that through a rather circuitous (and also rather humorous) route picked up some undeserved political connotations, and that's Shadilay by P. E. P. E.; I like the song on its own merits, but I'm not sure it if qualifies as "Italo disco".

    Love it. This stuff used to be in thrift stores everywhere in the 1990s.

    Koxo's "Step By Step" is a personal favorite. Does it qualify as Italo-Disco?

    Enjoy what I have heard. Big fan of mainly Europop, Euro-Disco, though... Not too well read on Italo Disco, but am very fond of Bad Boys Blue, Grant Miller, Gary Low, Laura Branigan (that count?) etc... Timeless dance music.

    The next "band" is not from Italy but from Germany but their music was very much in the style of italo disco.

    The Twins - Face To Face - Heart To Heart
