"Self Control" is a song by Italian singer Raf, released in 1984. It was written by Giancarlo Bigazzi, Steve Piccolo and Raf. The song was covered the same year by American singer Laura Branigan. Her version first hit no. 1 in Germany on June 15, 1984. Raf's version first hit no. 1 in Italy on June 23, 1984. Both versions of the song were popular across Europe during much of the summer of 1984 and were the most successful single of the year in Switzerland. Branigan's version peaked at no. 4 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and also went to no. 2 on the dance chart.[3] The song has become one of the defining songs of the 1980s, with a number of remakes recorded each year. Notable covers include Puerto Rican singer Ricky Martin in 1993, a hit dance remake by Branigan in 2004 and two 2006 versions that hit the Top 5 in various European enclaves, by Danish dance group Infernal and Spanish singer Soraya Arnelas.
@@rare_addictive Yes, its true, many people believe that the song is originally of Laura Branigan, but I know that the first version and song writting belongs to the Italian artist RAF because I have his original vynil both in 1984 at the shops in that time, The song was heard here in Madrid Spain before Lauras version in most of the Discos at that time. The same happens with many other artists, you listen to something, believe that what you are listening is the original, and then you start investigating and find yourself with many vintage versions until you finally hear the original version of all of them.
Love the direction the way camera rolls from her feet to head. The music fits beautifully in this direction amazing. Beautiful women and the song. This is one of the best remake of the original.
Finally found it. I was looking for this for a long time. After ten years I came back to this magnificent piece. Funny enough, the girl is still smashing hot
Dude, we had her down at the concerthouse i work at in Denmark called Portalen, that IS her voice - I was doing the sound at the concert, and trust me no digital fixing on this woman, she's just amazing.
This group is amazing. High quality videos to great songs. This is an erotic version of a Laura Branigan classic - showing her music is timeless. All of Infernal's songs are great and they back them up with original videos. They need to come to the USA for a tour!
best tribute to laura branigan .infernal is amazing group .i saw this video around 2006 or 2007 on a mix dvd of world video top charts hits .regards from pakistan
Laura Branigan made a great cover too, so popular that most people think her version is the original, but it's actually also just a cover version: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self_Control_(Raf_song) "Self Control" is a song by Italian singer Raf, released in 1984.

@@ITubeTooInc I was today years old when I learned that Laura Branigan's version is a cover. Infernal's version is forever my favorite--the style matches the song's themes so well.
Dla męskiej widowni połowę "roboty" robi to, że jest po prostu ładniutka, więc przyjemnie się na nią patrzy. Nigdy się nie zastanawiałem nad jej głosem ale rzeczywiście coś w sobie może ma ale nie jest też jakiś bardzo charakterystyczny.
I'm surprised no one has AI upscaled this. I am also surprised this has nearly 10 million views, but man uploaded 16 years ago this is oldschool youtube. She is absolutely gorgeous, edit: Just looked and they are still active and going in 2023, really impressive
Oh, my God, i became addicted to this version of Self-control, i just can't get enough of it, and i am very particular as far as music is concerned, so that' s a good sign for the Infernal version! It is fabulous, and the video, and i don't usually care for videos, is awesome! This song Self-control is great and addictively seducing! And as long as it is wonderfully sung, i like any version!
Thank you for this beautiful track Infernal- You did justice to Raf's original track which, apparently, was a bigger hit than Laura Branigan's cover. It brings back memory of being in the gym/clubs/bars back in 2006/07 when they used to play this music video/track constantly on TV/Radio! This will be a classic in 2026/27 for the next decade's generation to look back to and I can tell them I was there, when they used to play this 'in the gym/clubs/bars constantly'.
Lina Rafn in this video has to be one of the most beautiful women that ever stepped foot on this Earth. Especially between 0:18-0:56 never heard of this band till few days ago. I have watched this video more times then I can count.
У Раффа удлиннённая версия. Вообще оригинал считается у Лауры. У неё ещё пара песен в альбоме есть отпадных. Мало успела. Жаль. А вот этот клип самый лучший ремикс этой песни. Я их штук 20 слышал в разном исполнении. Тут очень хороший кач.а Лаура хорошо слушается как и все, что было в 80х и 90х
@@user-xu1zz6ru6l Кто вам сказал, что оригинал у Лауры? Многие так считают по своему незнанию и невежеству. У Рафа легко и креативно. И могу вас огорчить- оригинал Рафа любят не меньше. И большинство предпочитает именно оригинал Рафа, а не кавер Браниган.
@@gulyaflower4317 соглашусь. К тому же, оспаривать право первой брачной ночи в музыке по крайней мере недальновидно. В СССР Лаура была более раскручена.толтко с развитием интернета я лично стооолько узнал. А самое главное увидел. И до сих пор открываю для себя заново и биографии исполнителей. И фильмы.

After years n years I finally found it! 2024 jesus
Every day 😬🎼
No, I’m not.
In my opinion by far the best cover of this song. The synths and her voice are so powerful and dramatic.
Agreed. I listen to the one much more. "Powerful" is a great word to describe it.
It's 2023!! What an amazing version of Laura Branigan's unforgettable song!! We'll be celebrating this for life!!
Isn’t it? This gives me chills still! ❤
It's not Laura's song. Original is Italian wrote and sang by RAF
@@pawelwalanus3490Yeah!! I know that!! But it was Laura's performing that made this masterpiece simply ageless!! That's what I meant!!

Never heard this in 2000's.

isn't laura branigan, the original track's raf-self control
when the italian people played good.
no she not a group called RAF is the Original singers of this song
yes but laura branigan was most famous one in 90s
Plutonium Runs Loose most famous for only american people...not in italy when we know this song for raf
RAF's version is far more superior, if you ask me, of any version.
"Self Control" It's an Amazing Music......One of the Best Song Forever.
it's almost 2022,
And i still love this cover
I have a very sweet memory with this Song ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

It's great when the beauty of the voice matches the beauty on the exterior. Great cover.
Love the this remake, she has a strong and good voice
Trop trop bien cette version lnfernal 💋💗☺️
This era was so special. I miss it even more now it's gone.
Nothing like 2020 to make you realize how much better the 80's / 90's really were, right?
Love love love this Version... Infernal Rocks...
新欧洲类型
WHAT?! Gorgeous, actually talented people? No wonder they aren't on the radio. Regular people couldn't handle all this awesome.

Oh, the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It's the night time that flatters
In the night, no control
Through the wall something's breaking
Wearing white as you're walkin'
Down the street of my soul
You take my self, you take my self control
You got me livin' only for the night
Before the morning comes, the story's told
You take my self, you take my self control
Another night, another day goes by
I never stop myself to wonder why
You help me to forget to play my role
You take my self, you take my self control
I, I live among the creatures of the night
I haven't got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow
So I guess I'll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes
A safe night (you take my self, you take my self control)
I'm living in the forest of my dream (you take my self, you take my self control)
I know the night is not as it would seem (you take my self, you take my self control)
I must believe in something
So I'll make myself believe it (you take my self, you take my self control)
This night will never go
