.:so saad:.

calabria by enur was originally released in 2003 by credence and was originally conceived as an instrumental. the single became a hit only after being used by ronnie milani and maurizio nari to create a mash-up alex gaudino's and crystal waters' destination unknown. the track was released once more in 2007, remixed with dancehall and added vocals by danish reggae singer natasja saad. this version has gained popularity in the u.s. on january 16, 2008 the song reached number one on billboard's hot dance airplay chart and in the process gave saad the chart's first number one single by a posthumous artist, as saad tragically was killed in a automobile accident in 2007. here's to her memory.
