Musical career

Their main hit, a 1994 song named "The Summer Is Magic", featured the voice of "Giovanna Bersola", best known by her stage name Jenny B, one of the most important voices of the Italo dance/Eurodance genre, who also did the real vocals for the debut hit of Corona, "The Rhythm of the Night" (all of the rest of the songs on the 1st and 2nd album by Corona were sung by Sandra Chambers a.k.a. "Sandy"). This led to the mistaken belief that "The Summer Is Magic" was another hit song by "Corona".

The song was written by Emanuele Asti and Stefano Carrara, produced by Asti and licensed worldwide by "Disco Inn/Conte Max Music".
