"Someone Else's Eyes" is a vocal duet between Lear and Enrico Petrelli, better known under his stage name Deadstar, who has also written and produced the track.

It is a mid-tempo pop song with jazz elements, arranged by Nerio Poggi, including a saxophone solo by Fabio Tullio.

Amanda Lear and Deadstar met in summer 2008 – their first meeting took place in a café in the 16th arrondissement of Paris[1] where they both live.

[3] The song was then remixed by Boy George and Kinky Roland, and released as a maxi single on 24 May 2010 to promote the reissue Brief Encounters Reloaded.
