About The Record:

Chinese Eyes (12" Single) by Fancy, is a quintessential 1980s Euro disco and Italo disco release that showcases the extended 12-inch format with its title track's infectious synth-driven groove and the energetic B-side Burn with Impatience, earning particular praise from fans for the high-quality instrumental versions found on certain pressings. The single stands out for its polished, dancefloor-ready production and catchy hooks that perfectly capture the era's vibrant club sound, making Chinese Eyes itself a lasting fan-favorite and enduring classic frequently celebrated in genre retrospectives and reissues. Historically significant as one of Fancy's early international breakthroughs, the release propelled him into the spotlight as both a producer and performer in the mid-1980s dance music scene, achieving notable success as a hit single that peaked at No. 2 on the US Billboard Dance Charts, reached the Top 10 on the USA Billboard charts in 1985, and also charted strongly in Germany and several other markets, cementing his reputation for creating globally appealing, airplay-heavy tracks.
