Paola

by Drago Bonacich

Italian pop singer Paola Turci made her live debut at San Remo's Festival in 1986, two years later making her first record, called Ragazza Sola Ragazza Blu. The artist breakthrough came in 1989 when her song "Bambini," included in her self-titled album, became a huge success. In 1993 the artist released Ragazze, followed by 1995's Una Sgommata E Via and 1996's Volo Cosi. That same year, Paola Turci moved from BMG to WEA, recording her second smash, a song called "Mi Manchi Tu," based on John Waite's "Missing You."
