E vado via

"E vado via" is a 1991 song recorded as a duet by French singers Didier Barbelivien and Félix Gray. Written by Barbelivien with a music composed by Gray, this ballad was released in 1991 and became the third single from their 1991 album Les Amours cassées, on which it is the opening track. Lyrics are in French, except for the chorus which is sung in Italian by a female voice. It was a hit in France, peaking at number five, though it did not reach the same success as the duo's previous two singles.

Critical reception
When reviewing the single, Music & Media stated that "the contribution of sensual Corinne Sauvage gives this ballad a warm, Mediterranean air".
