Ma quale idea
1980 single by Pino D'Angiò / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Ma quale idea" ("But What Idea") is a song written and performed by Italian singer Pino D'Angiò from his debut studio album, ...Balla! (1981). The song was arranged by jazz musician Enrico Intra.[1][2] The single was an international success, selling over 2 million copies.[1] Despite the common belief that the bassline of the track was taken from "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now" by McFadden & Whitehead,[3] D'Angiò claimed that he composed it independently along with the bassist Stefano Cerri.[4] The song was later sampled in Madison Avenue's 1999 hit "Don't Call Me Baby".[5]
