Она как ветер: История песни из фильма "Грязные танцы"

1987 single by Patrick Swayze featuring Wendy Fraser

"She's Like the Wind" is a 1987 song by American actor and singer Patrick Swayze from the soundtrack to the film Dirty Dancing. The song features additional vocals from singer Wendy Fraser. The ballad reached number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number one on the Adult Contemporary chart.

Swayze and Stacy Widelitz co wrote the song in 1984. It was originally intended for the soundtrack of Grandview, U. S. A. and was meant to be about Jamie Lee Curtis' character in the film. However, the song was not used in that film. During production of Dirty Dancing in 1987, Swayze played the demo for producer Linda Gottlieb and director Emile Ardolino. They loved it and passed it on to Jimmy Ienner and Bob Feiden, the soundtrack's executive producers.

The music video in black and white features clips from the movie Dirty Dancing. The video can be seen on the Ultimate Dirty Dancing DVD.

The song was released commercially on 7" vinyl in many countries, with a 3 track 12" maxi single and 2 track cassette also produced. CD singles were a relatively new format, however; a 2 and 3 track 5" CD and Japanese mini CD single were commercially released.

American recording artists Lumidee and Tony Sunshine covered the song for Lumidee's second album, Unexpected (2007). It was released as the lead single from Unexpected in the US and Europe on April 3, 2007.

According to Lumidee, the idea to record a remake of Patrick Swayze's 1987 song "She's Like The Wind" was inspired by her European label when she recommended a collaboration with recording artist Tony Sunshine. She also said, "We'd been talking about working together but hadn't been able to. But he loved the idea of doing something with this song."

The music video for this version was directed by Dayo.
