One to start the weekend (week 17)

[Davros]

ah, this is a goodun this week, i promise you, infact, also a bit of a pole.

This weeks 12stw takes us back to 1992, and to that great era.

With its classic feel, combined with unusual lyrics, this track set the chart on fire, and is one of those songs that defines the era.

Of course, like a lot of tunes it has subsequently been re-released, this one in 2003, reaching no18. Sometimes re-releases can be dull, or un-original, but the CJ stone remix was used as the lead edit on the re-releases, and bought a whole new life to the song.

Anyway, i prefere the original, but the CJ stone remix is ace (hence the poll).

Without further ado...

Im serious as cancer, when i say this weeks one to start the weekend, is Rhythm is a Dancer!:D

1992 ---- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9c5otT-RUA

2003 ---- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtGTWub9enM&mode=related&search=

So yes, have a vote, do you prefere 1992 or 2003 style...

Has to be the original. I seriously hate covered songs.

 

[Xàbia Shrimper]

Is it a cover?

I thought it was a re-mix / re-release?

 

[Mr. Benedict]

Legendary song.

Yeah sorry, I meant re-mix. I hate covered songs as well.

blah, some songs wouldnt have seen the light of day had it not been for a good remix... 'Brimful of Asher' for one!

True, and a very good example sir.

However in this case, the original far outshines the remix.

<Music snob alert> > SORRY <<

This track was a bit of a joke at the time so I can't believe the remix could be anything else. Am I alone in thinking this is just cheesy, Europop, embarrassing meat-market background music?

Next week: which is better - "Barbie Girl" (original) or the "Atomic Hard Trance Euromaster remix (2001)??

:confused:
