<P> According to Alan Cooper, "Sarstedt insisted it was not written with actress Sophia Loren in mind .' Yes, it's a portrait of a poor - born girl who becomes a member of the European jet - set . And yes, there's reference to her growing up on the' back streets of Naples', so I can see why people may think it was written with Sophia Loren in mind . But that's just a coincidence . I really wasn't thinking of anyone specific ."' </P> <P> The song was written in Copenhagen . </P> <P> In 2009, Sarstedt spoke to a gossip columnist for the Daily Express . He admitted he had lied about the song being about a socialite who died in a fire . He said that the song was about his girlfriend at the time, whom he later married and then divorced . According to Mark Steyn, "Anita is now a dentist in Copenhagen . Peter Sarstedt has spent 40 years singing about wanting to look inside her head . And for most of that time Anita has made a living by looking inside yours ." </P> <P> The song was a hit far exceeding Sarstedt's other work, although he is not a one - hit wonder . In 1998 he was earning £ 60,000 annually in royalties from it . </P>
