RYAN PARIS (ITALY)

Born: 12 March 1953
Real name: Fabio Roscioli

Paris was born in Rome (not often that sentence would make sense). Apparently, he wanted to be a poet, but ended up being a one hit wonder as his debut single, ‘Dolce Vita’, was a hit across Europe and sold in excess of 5 million copies. The song was allegedly inspired by the Federico Fellini film, ‘La Dolce Vita’. Paris continued to release songs after ‘Dolce Vita’, but almost all have failed to make any real impact. ‘Dolce Vita’ made it to 5 in the UK and 3 in Germany. ‘Fall In Love’ would give him a number 67 hit in Germany.
