Ai no Corrida is a song written by Chas Jankel and Kenny Young, first recorded in 1980 and featuring on Chas Jankel's self-titled debut album for A&M Records. It was covered by Quincy Jones in the following year (peaking at #28 on the US chart; #14, UK) on the album The Dude and by British dance act Uniting Nations in 2005 (album One World). Quincy Jones also recorded a Spanish-language version for the 2006 charity album Rhythms del mundo, with vocals by Vania Borges.
The song's title is taken from the original Japanese title of the 1976 film In the Realm of the Senses.
The title of the song means "bullfight of love" in Japanese, but it sounds like Spanish "ay no corrida" (which can be translated as "oh no bullfighting"), or "hay no corrida", "there's no argument".
