I wasn't aware that it was "electro" when I was a 10 year old kid. I just knew it was a kickass song. The cred it gets now makes it even cooler. | |

i just thought it was a poppy, clubby, sorta hip-hoppy dance song when it first came out...then i think it got revived with "the crying game", and it got a little bit of alternative cred...and now, you hear tons of hipster electro groups making songs sounding like it. i think it's a pretty influential little ditty. | |

It's so great that even cheap copies would have to be at least interesting. | |

Both of those tunes are classic. The other one from that album that I love is My Heart's Divided. | |

Perhaps more importantly, it launched the entire freestyle genre. Lisa Lisa, The Cover Girls, Sweet Sensation, Sa-fire, etc. all have their roots in Shannon. | |
