Song information

The story is about In-Grid who watches a movie called In-Tango. She is the star of that movie. In the movie she is late for the Prom. She approaches a handsome gentleman and they dance. The girl that was dancing with that man leaves jealously. The movie ends with all the audience leaving because of the lyrics of the song that are quite disturbing. When In-Grid watches the movie she wears the same clothes as when she acted and sang the same song that she sang in the movie.

Lyrics

The lyrics were written by In-Grid and Marco Soncini, who co-produced the song with Alfredo Larry Pignagnoli. The English version was also co-written by Daniela Galli (also known as Dhany) and Paul Sears.
