Baby Baby (Corona song)
"Baby Baby" is a song by Italian band Corona, released in February 1995 by ZYX Music as the second single from their debut album, The Rhythm of the Night (1995). The song, written by Francesco Bontempi and Antonia Bottari, was originally a hit in 1991 for Italian project Joy & Joyce as "Babe Babe". Both tracks were produced by Bontempi under his Lee Marrow guise. It was very successful on the singles charts around the world, peaking at number-one in Italy, and on the RPM Dance/Urban chart in Canada. In the UK, it peaked at number five for two weeks. Two different music videos were produced for the song.

The lyrics and melody are interpolation of Alisha Warren's 1989 song "Touch Me" (which was similarly sampled in the 1989 italo house hit "Touch Me" by the 49ers) combined with 1988's K.I.S.S.I.N.G. by Siedah Garrett.
In 2007, the Swedish dance group Sunblock made a cover of the song, which peaked at number one in Spain and number four in Finland.
