Cose della vita


"Cose della vita" is a song originally released in 1993 by Eros Ramazzotti and included on his album Tutte storie. The single's highest chart placing was number 1 in Belgium, number 3 in Spain and number 4 in Italy. The original version also was a smash hit in Argentina, Chile, Mexico and Uruguay in the fall of 1993, gaining strong TV rotation. The music video for the song was directed by Spike Lee.
The song saw an international revival through a bilingual Italian-English version released in late 1997 as a duet with American singer Tina Turner. The additional English lyrics were by James Ralston and Tina Turner herself. The track was included in a later greatest hits compilation album by Ramazzotti titled Eros, released on 28 October 1997.

As is traditional with many other successful releases of Ramazzotti songs, he released a Spanish language parallel release for Spain, Mexico, Latin America and USA Latin markets titled "Cosas de la vida".
