Visitors is a 1985 italo-disco song recorded by Italian group Koto. Composed by Maiola and produced by Cundari, it is considered one of the best songs in the italo-disco cannon. It contains a sample from "Michael Jackson's" 1984 hit, "Thriller". It is also considered one of the first "spacesynth" songs, a style of music which became popular during the mid-late 80's.
'Visitors' has sold 200,000 units, making it one of the highest selling italo-disco songs.
