Louis is blamming on there, and co-writer MJ adding vocal fills as well.
The whole album makes me wanna wiggle, but still, i've heard "Stomp" far too much.
I really like the mix of instrumental and vocal-cuts on the b-side.

Considering that MJ wrote this song and sings backup vocals,I'm surprised that this thread isn't heating up lol I guess his fans on this site don't know about his involvement,lol.

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

They do, they're probably just discussed it to death. This is one of my favs, but every time I've mentioned it in the past it goes ignored.

'Light Up The Night' is a strong album.The higlights for me are...

"Stomp"
"Treasure"
"This Had To Be"
"Celebrations"
"You Make Me Wanna Wiggle"

I do know! And somehow I think this is a relevant to Sunset Driver. Some melody parts remind me of it. I know this song since 2002 and when I first listened to Sunset Driver I got this impression.

I like the intro, it sounds like German Volksmusik.
