ZUCCHERO - Per colpa di chi (1995)
ZUCCHERO - Baila Morena (Sexy Thing) (2002)




"Baila morena" is a song recorded in 2001 by the Italian singer Zucchero. The song was released as a single twice : first in 2001 (under the title "Baila (Sexy Thing)"), reaching #1 in Italy, but achieving a moderate success in the other countries, then in 2006 as a duet with the Mexican rock band Mana, as the soundtrack of the film Les Bronzes 3 : Amis pour la vie (English : French Fried Vacation 3 - Friends Forever), becoming this time a huge hit in France and Belgium.

On February 2, 2006, the single entered the French Singles Chart at #64, then jumped straight to #1, which is the third biggest jump to number-one in this country. After four weeks at #1, the singles dropped almost every week on the chart, totaling ten weeks in the top ten, 17 in the top 50 and 28 in the top 100. It was the 9th best-selling of the year and was certified Gold by the SNEP. As of July 2014, it is the 103rd best-selling single of the 21st century in France, with 299,000 units sold.

In 2007, the song was covered by Patrick Fiori and Helene Segara and included in a medley available on Les Enfoires' album La Caravane des Enfoires
