“Quando Quando Quando” (“When When When”) is a song with a long history and a couple of pseudo-Eurovision connections. Originally released in 1962, it was entered into Italy’s Festival di Sanremo that year, where it placed fourth sung by Tony Renis and Emilio Pericoliand. Engelbert Humperdink, the United Kingdom’s Eurovision 2012 representative, later recorded his own English-language version in 1968. Now, Engelbert’s rendition has been remixed again by music producer Tonekind. Adding in an electronic dance beat, it brings the song 50 years forward in time to the present day. The lyrics, while now vocoded, remain the same, with the British singer asking a person when they’ll become his lover: “Tell me when will you be mine / Tell me quando, quando, quando”.
