Tanti auguri

"Tanti auguri" (Italian pronunciation: [ˈtanti auˈɡuːri, ˈtantj -]; "Best Wishes" or "Best of Luck") is the seventeenth single by Italian pop singer Raffaella Carrà, published in 1978 by the Italian branch of CBS Records International and distributed by Sugar Music. It is considered one of Carrà's signature songs, an all-time favourite in Italy, and an LGBT anthem.

"Tanti auguri" featured as the opening theme for the controversial Rete 1 TV program Ma che sera, with its video – Carrà's first appearance in colour – being shot at Italia in Miniatura in Rimini.

The lyrics describe an Italian woman's free sexual habits, celebrating "lovemaking" in all of her country, "both in the city and in the countryside" (in campagna ed in città). The opening line of the chorus, "come è bello far l'amore da Trieste in giù" ("how beautiful it is to make love from Trieste southward"), has become memorable among Italians.

The song was translated into Spanish by Manolo Díaz Martínez [es] as "Hay que venir al sur" ("One Must Come to the South"), also performed by Carrà and becoming a hit across Spanish-speaking countries. Several covers were recorded, including by Anne Veski in Estonian under the title "Jätke võtmed väljapoole" ("Leave the Keys Outside"), by Paula Koivuniemi in Finnish under the title "Astun aurinkolaivaan" ("I'm Boarding the Sun Ship"), and by Asta Pilypaitė feat. Gintarė Karaliūnaitė [lt] in Lithuanian under the title "Debesėlis" ("Cloud").

Following Carrà's death in 2021, the single has had a resurgence, totalling over 25 million streams on Spotify and 20 million views on YouTube,[citation needed] earning her a posthumous gold certification for selling 35,000 copies.
