"Sbucciami" (Italian: [ˈzbuttʃami], transl. "Peel me"), is a 1979 song by Italian singer-songwriter Cristiano Malgioglio. It is the opening track to his eponymous album of the same year, and the only single released from the album, with the song Quando fuori piove[1] as its B-side. It is one of Malgioglio's best known songs, as well as one of the most successful ones; it was written by Malgioglio himself and Corrado Castellari.
The song also appears in many of Malgioglio's compilation albums.

Background[edit]

"Sbucciami" is a pop ballad with a vaguely disco-inspired atmosphere, as it was quite common at the time it was released. The song's lyrics play over sexual innuendos, with the narrator comparing himself to a fruit. Despite Malgioglio being openly gay, the gender of the lover is never specified through the song.[2][3]
Because of its lyrics, the song is considered a trash-kitsch classic by the audience.[4][5]

In 2006, Malgioglio released a remixed version of the song in Spanish, titled Pélame; it featured the then-debuting Cuban band M5.[6][7][8]
