But we spent months trying to find this song and I came across this place and uploaded it. I forgot all about this as I was just a 17 year old kid! But I do in fact remember this song. It is from Italy and was played at many discos and parties. The song is called hold my hand tight by Rico. I can't remember his last name. This might not even be right as I can't f"
