Shadilay
"Shadilay" is an Italo disco song by the Italian band P.E.P.E., released in 1986 by the music label Magic Sound. It was written by Italian singer-songwriter Marco Ceramicola, who sang under the pseudonym of Manuele Pepe.It gained attention in 2016 for the band name's similarity to the meme Pepe the Frog, the single's cover also featuring a drawing of a cartoon frog. The album cover belongs to Magic Sound, and has been used in multiple songs produced by them, including "Babababo" by Bibox. It has since been used as the anthem for the fictional country of Kekistan. Ceramicola had since abandoned his career in the music industry. He felt that the newfound worldwide audience the song received online was unexpected.
