ok. I need to get this song out of my brain. I know some of you grew up with this movie...it's about the Cutters getting into bike competition against the Cinzano team.

Anyway, there is a scene where Dave serenaded Katarina (Catherine), with an italian song.

Question is: who knows the title and singer of that song?

The rythm floats inside my head, with the first word, something like "Maparee.." (or something like that). This is, by the way, the longest earworm for me (20+ years), but never really trying to find it out until today, I can't stand it anymore.


Thanks in advance, guys.

According to IMDb:

Seranade is from the opera "Martha" (aria "M'appari, tutt'amor")
by Friedrich von Flotow
