Uomini Più Uomini is the eighth studio album by French singer Amanda Lear, originally issued on label Ricordi International in 1989. This was her first album feature only tracks sung in Italian. This album, like several other of Lear's albums in the 1980s and 1990s, was only a moderate commercial success and failed to chart.

Album information

Uomini Più Uomini was only released in Italy where her popularity remained high because of several TV-appearances over the years. The album, however, failed to make much impact on the charts. While Amanda's previous recordings usually contained elements of dance music, there was no dance material on this record. The album would re-appear under the name Tant Qu'il Y Aura Des Hommes in France the same year with half of the songs re-recorded in French and including one new song; "Métamorphose".

It was initially only available on vinyl and cassette, However, German company Siebenpunkts Verlags Gmbh has since acquired the publishing rights to the album and it has been re-packaged and re-released on CD combined with tracks from its French language counterpart Tant Qu'il Y Aura Des Hommes under the titles Je T'aime, Télégramme, Essential, Indovina Chi Sono and My French Italian Song Book no less than ten times, once even by a sublabel to one of the Big Four, Warner Music France.
