"Ancora Tu" is an Italian phrase roughly translating to "You Again". It's also the name of a classic 1976 pop song by Lucio Battisti and Mogol.
In 1979 Battisti recorded an English language version called "Baby It's You".
Also in 1979, conceptual artist Colette Justine released her own English semi-cover/reimagining, "Still You", under the name Justine & the Victorian Punks (recently reissued).
Now here in 2014, Róisín Murphy has put out her own version of the Italian original, as one of six songs on her all-Italian EP, "Mi Senti" (streaming here).
Other versions were recorded by Mina (1978), Marcella Bella (1983), Paola Turci (1993), Cristiano Malgioglio & Maria Schneider (1996), The Married Monk (2001), and 4 Fiori per Zoe (2005), plus a lot of others not online!
