Che effetto mi fa

"Che effetto mi fa" ("What effect does it have on me") is a single by Pino Donaggio. It was written by Donaggio and Cristiano Minellono and released in 1970.

Sandie Shaw's cover of the song was released the same year, and at the 1970 Sanremo Music Festival, both Donaggio and Shaw individually performed it, to which it was eliminated.
