Natale Galletta - "Ti Amo Tanto"

I first heard this cover version on the fan site Let the Europe Times Rock around 2001. Many years later I found it on YouTube.

I don't speak Italian, so I'm not sure if these Italian lyrics are a translation of the original "The Final Countdown" lyrics, or if they're brand new lyrics.

No, totally different matter. It's a love song in the neapolitan neo-melodic fashion. You can tell it by the use of some words in neapolitan dialect and a quite strong neapolitan accent. Pretty naive if you ask me and not memorable, but funny.
