    Hi! I asked about this song a few weeks ago and somebody suggested it might be Karen Silver's. I found and ordered her CD, which I received today, just to dissapointed because it is the song I'm looking for but it is not the right version. The version I'm looking for has a faster pace (at leat 10 bpms faster)and the singer's voice is a bit rougher.

    I think the version I'm looking for came out in '79. Does anybody have any ideas?

    By the way, I listened to this CD and I'm not keeping it since it is not what I['m looking for. Is anybody interested in buying it?

    One of these Eurodisco wonders Jussi wrote about was German singer called Gilla. She recorded a version of "Black Is Black" that I haven't been able to forget to this day...

    She also did "Hold On, I'm Coming". It did come out on a single in early 1979 -- according to my sometimes failing memory -- and it was the B side of "Bend Me, Shape Me". Hope this helps.

    Thanks! I'll check it out!

    By the way, the version I'm looking for has a fantastic horns section and Latin percusion.

    Dear Ricardo Mata! I think the version you
    are searching is from PRECIOUS WILSON"Hold
    I´m Coming" released in the late 1979 and
    prod. by Frank Farian. It sounds a lot like
    ERUPTION. For me, this one is the best
    version of all (certainly KAREN SILVER is
    another best version...but only much more
    harder!)
