- Not to be confused with Crazy For Love (Sara Song).
"Crazy For Love" is a song by Ennio Zanini under his alias Dusty. Produced around 2000, the song was first released in the mixed compilation album "Super Eurobeat Presents Euromach 6" on September 13, 2000; then it was released together with "Play The Music" by Ace in a vinyl single by Double Rec. in 2001.
However, initially the song was to be called "Mind Invaders" and released under the other Zanini's alias "Doctor Stranger", but Avex did not like this version, so there were made several changes until it ended up being re-titled as "Crazy For Love" and released under the alias "Dusty". Later in 2018, Mind Invaders would be finally released on the Eurobeat Kudos 10 album.
A remix made by New Generation called "Super Crazy Edit" was released together with a Rising High remix of "Easy Busy" by Kiki & Kika in a promotional vinyl maxi-release of the album "Super Eurobeat Presents The Best Of Euromach" released by Cutting Edge and Avex Trax in 2000. This remix was also released together with "Try Me" by Lolita and "Popteen" by Domino as part of the vinyl album "Super Eurobeat Presents 12" Collection Vol. 1" on November of 2005.
Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Shock
Crazy for love
Crazy for love
Crazy for love
Crazy for love
Crazy for love
Crazy for love (Shock)
Crazy for love (Shock)
Crazy for love (Shock)
Crazy (Shock)
[Verse 1]
Got to be the first one
Got to be the last one
You never get no peace of mind
Never show emotions
All communication's over you
Got no feeling
[Pre-Chorus]
Stop me now guess you wonder why
You just sold out the dream inside
Up and down, baby for your loving
Baby we can fly up to the sky
[Chorus]
Every day, every night crazy for love
Into the depth of desire
Every time, everywhere crazy for love
And now my spirit's on fire
Every day, every night crazy for love
Into the depth of desire
Every time, everywhere crazy for love
And now my spirit's on fire
Crazy for love (Shock)
[Verse 2]
When you get the feeling
When you find some loving
You've got to run away from here
Show me your emotion
Baby make me feel so natural
It's the real thing
