Archive news- August 1998
Alexia prepares for the European release of “The music I like” by going on a European promotional tour. During this tour, she visited Mexico, Denmark, Sweden, Germany, The Netherlands, Spain and the UK. The UK release date for “The music I like” is pencilled in for the 31/8/98 but is subject to change. Like with the UK version of “Gimme love”, there is also confusion to what version of the single will be the UK radio version. The video released to the UK TV stations is the same one as the European version, but some people think that the Metro club edit will be released as the UK radio version as it is the one on the UK version of “The Party”.  In the end, it was revealed that the European version of “The music I like” will be released in the UK rather than the Metro edit, although a video of “The music I like” with the metro edit dubbed over it has been made and released to some TV stations. Alexia also got to number two in the mixology club charts with this single.

Both “Gimme love” and “The music I like” sell over 100,000 copies in Italy, after both being at number one for several weeks, breaking the record in the Italian market. “The Party” is soon to be awarded a platinum disc for the 100,000 copies sold in Italy.
