CD Single
One of the best one-hit wonders of the '80s. If you can stand the dated sound, it's hard to sit still when it comes on. It's a potent dance track. That said, 5 remixes clocking in at 29 minutes is a lot of one song. Bonus points for its inclusion in the movie American Psycho.
Tracks:
- Club Mix - the basic single extended to 8 minutes by adding a 4 minute drum break.
- The 54 Mix - basically 5 minutes of the drum track. Great for karaoke.
- Percapella - just the opposite of the preceding mix. Almost all vocals with a light dusting of percussion. No bass or keyboards.
- Pure Energy Mix -the single mix you remember from the radio. This is the track that gets ripped to iTunes.
- What's On Your Dub Mix - As far as extended dance remixes go, this one's not bad. Too bad I'm too worn down by the previous 4 tracks to enjoy it.
Single chart peaks:
- US Billboard Hot 100: #3
- Billboard Dance: #1
- Billboard Rock: #10
- CashBox: #3
- Radio & Records: #4
Personal Memory Associated with this CD: Reminds of clubbing in the summer of 1988, particularly a club on upper Greenville Ave. Can't remember the name. Maybe it will come to me later. City Limits?
