"È l'uomo per me" (English: He's a man to me) is a song by Italian singer Mina. The song is an Italian-language cover of the song "He Walks Like a Man" (1964) by American country singer Jody Miller. The music was written by Diane Hildebrand, and the Italian lyrics was written by Gaspare Gabriele Abbate and Vito Pallavicini.[1] The song was released as a single and reached the top of the Italian chart, spending seven consecutive weeks at number one.[2] The song "So che non e così" was used as the B-side.

Mina recorded Spanish versions of both songs under the titles "Mi hombre será" ("So che non è così") and "Se que no es así" ("So che non e così"). Later, both songs were included in the EP Canta en Español released in Spain.[3]
