No Tengo Dinero (Righeira song)

"No Tengo Dinero" (English: "I have no money") is a song by the Italian Italo disco duo Righeira, released as a single in 1983. With Spanish lyrics, it was written by Stefano Rota and brothers Carmelo and Michelangelo La Bionda.[1] While not as successful as their earlier single, Vamos a la playa, the song nonetheless achieved high popularity, hitting 12th place in Germany.[2] Much like their previous single, the song is written in Spanish because it was considered an unusual combination with electronic pop music,[3] and celebrating in spite of hardship (in this case poverty, as opposed to nuclear war).
