"Senza una donna" (IPA: [ˈsɛntsa ˈuːna ˈdɔnna]) is a song written and performed by Italian singer and musician Zucchero on his fourth album, Blue's (1987). Originally recorded in Italian, in 1990 it was re-recorded in English with English singer and musician Paul Young. The English lyrics were contributed by Frank Musker. The song was then released as a single under the title "Senza una donna (Without a Woman)".
The English version of the song reached number four on the UK Singles Chart and number two on both the German Singles Chart and the French Singles Chart. It also topped the charts of Belgium, Ireland, Norway, Quebec, and Sweden, selling more than 5,000,000 copies worldwide.[1] It was also one of the most famous songs in Venezuela in 1991.[2] "Senza una donna" was released along with two music videos: one for the solo version and another for the duet version.
