Maybe it doesn't have enough energy for some people or sound joyous enough for their taste, but melodically I think it is one of the best she has sang.

Touch Me Touch Me is a lot better than Sometimes in my opinion. The riff is very good.

Touch Me Touch Me is my favourite by her. Love the opening section, the passion of the vocals in the chorus, the smooth integrating of various riffs throughout the song. The early 90s was a classic period for the style.

I seem to have forgotten about Falling Down / Norma Sheffield as well. The synths used are very nice. The production is what makes this song great in my opinion. Every time I listen to the riff I have to smile :)

Falling Down is definitely good, would fit in my top 3 for Norma right now.

Joining the discussion cuz Norma is one of my favourit Aishu Eurobeat artists ever.Norma Sheffield has a lot of great songs. Two of my all TIME favs would be Your Love Is A Lightning(very NRGgetic riff for Norma) and Looking To The Poeple(beautiful upbeat song) my top 5 would be rounded off by Ladies, Lonely Nights, I Love You Like You Are and Sunshine, which would slot in my top 3, but I could easily make a top 20 of her songs.

She also did a tremendous job at Vibration singing under Sharon K. with TIME to Fly and Lady Quark

It kills me to see such little love for Norma's work here... personally, she's one of my favorite musical artists of all time (of any kind, even!)

My favorite tracks are:

Broken Heart
Diamond Of Forever (very underrated)
I Just Wanna Call You Now
If You Wanna Stay (one of my favorite songs of all time, from anyone)
It's For Your Eyes (CLASSIC A-Beat C)
Look Me In The Eyes
Love Me
Maybe Tonite
Sometimes
Spring Time
Step Inside My Lovin' (also quite underrated)
Sunshine
Touch Me Touch Me

I love all her stuff, including tracks on Euromach, but mainly my favorites are her aishu-style songs.

Very important fact after 25 years, for all fans of voice the girl, which we hear first of all as Norma Sheffield.

Giancarlo Pasquini revealed, that real vocalist was since the beginning in "Your Body Lies" woman called Chiara De Pieri.

Francesca Contini, Alberto Contini's sister has never sung.
