Remove ads
"No tengo dinero" is a song by the Italian Italo disco duo Righeira from their 1983 debut album Righeira. It was written by Michael Righeira, the duo's backing vocalist and producers Carmelo La Bionda and Michelangelo La Bionda.[1] While not as successful as their earlier single, "Vamos a la playa", the song nonetheless achieved high popularity, hitting 12th place in Germany.[2] Much like their previous single, the song is written in Spanish because it was considered an unusual combination with electronic pop music,[3] and celebrating in spite of hardship (in this case poverty, as opposed to nuclear war).

Music video
The music video for "No tengo dinero" was directed by Pierluigi de Mas, who had previously worked with Righeira in the videos for "Vamos a la playa" and "Luciano Serra Pilota" (1983).[5] The aesthetics of the video where inspired by italian futurism (the video includes footage of the Regia Aeronautica and the House with external elevators from architect Antonio Sant'Elia) and animated by rotoscopy.
