The song was originally in 1968 written by Lucio Battisti and Giulio Rapetti (under the pseudonym 'Mogul') for the Italian singer Ambra Borelli, entitled "Il paradiso della vita". Jack Fishman then translated it to English . [2]

The first records of Amen Corner issued by Deram Records, but this label was changed in late 1968 for Immediate Records.
