"Self Control" is the name of an international hit song recorded in 1984 by Laura Branigan, also known for the hit "Gloria", as well as the album on which it appears. The song was originally recorded and sung that same year with the same English lyrics by Italian singer Raf, who wrote the song (with the help of Giancarlo Bigazzi and Steve Piccolo). In 2006, both Danish dance group Infernal and Spanish singer Soraya Arnelas released a cover of the song. This song was used as a track from fictional radio station, Flash FM, on video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. This song enjoyed success in both the UK and the US, peaking at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #5 on the UK Singles Chart. The song narrates the singer's slip into the world of nightlife, the allure of which has her "livin' only for the night" and deeming herself to "live among the creatures of the night". Rather than actually invoking control over herself, the singer repeatedly declares to a phantom protagonist that that "you take my self, you take my self control". The song was written by Raffaele Riefoli. .....Lyrics..... On the night Is my world City lights Painted girls In the day Nothing matters It's the night Time that flatters In the night No control Through the wall Something's breaking Wearing white As you're walking Down the street Of my soul You take myself You take my self-control You got me living only for the night Before the morning comes the story's told You take myself You take my self-control Another night Another day goes by I never stop myself to wonder why You help me to forget to play my role You take myself You take my self-control I I live among the creatures of the night I haven't got the will to try and fight Against a new tomorrow So, I guess I'll just believe it tomorrow never comes I said night I'm living in the forest of a dream I know the night is not as it would seem I must believe in something so I'll make myself believe it- This night will never go Ooo ~ 8X On the night Is my world City lights Painted girls In the day Nothing matters It's the night Time that flatters I I live among the creatures of the night I haven't got the will to try and fight, against a new tomorrow So, I guess I'll just believe it tomorrow never comes I said night I'm living in the forest of a dream I know the night is not as it would seem I must believe in something so I'll make myself believe it- This night will never go Ooo ~ 8X (You take myself, you take my self-control) ~ 9X.....End
