Danni Minogue remakes Madonna on "Don't Wanna Lose This Groove"

Now,usually when a singer uses such a heavy sample of an oldie,these days atleast,i say aloud: "4fuxake! do something original!"

But when i heard this on the local music video show,it leaped out at me & i got funky too it.
(perhaps danni being scantily clad in the video helped)

The instrumental sounds just like the original "Into the Groove".... u wouldn't know if the music has been reproduced or if she just took the actual Madonna track & did her own thing over it.

It is a very sexy track...lookin' 4ward 2 bumpin' this one in Summertime.

opinions/slag-offs/props ? ?

Yes, this version of the song is great!

She has a remix using Dead Or Alive too.

Check the whole album out. It's surprisingly good.

Pete Burns isn't too happy about her using his sample. He wrote a big rant about her on a website. I love Dannii's whole album though. It's so funky. Here is what he said:

Hi, I have just confirmed London gay pride on July 26. Main stage! Hope to see many of you there!

I need to know if this video of Dannii Minogue’s is being seen on TV? If so, what shows, which countries, etc. Yet again she has overlooked the small but important issue of CLEARANCE. I am not happy about the original “Spin Me” clip being spliced in. It makes me look dated, to an audience unfamiliar with my work or appearance. I must make a mental note, should the rather unlikely situation arise that I have to feature Dannii in a video of mine, to include clips from around the time of that stunning duet she did, with Kylie, of “Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves”, or something around the time of her first single releases: plump, black and white Lilly Munster hair, no tits, no lips, and a somewhat different face. I am sure she will be delighted. Of course, I won't ask permission, I will just go ahead and do it, and wait until she reads her message board and finds out from her fans! I must make a note to give her album a listen. Why bother to waste time, and money, and thought: I’ll just go into a studio, where I can just sing over one of hers, which is a rather alarming trend she seems to be instigating. Sony are very excited about the Dannii single. They are always calling to get an update regarding it. I think our A and R man thinks she is on their label, and what a good job he and Sony are doing, marketing her!!...

...I am looking into collaborating with some interesting people; Princess Julia is one of them, on new material. Somehow, I don’t think Dannii is waiting to be asked: why should she? She can go right ahead, and use it anyway! For the record, I love the song she sings on, and think the mix, featuring us, is fantastic. Did any of you know, it’s an old song? About 5 years ago, I heard it was a hit in Italy, by somebody else, and as the chord structure is identical to ‘Spin Me’, we are looking into that as I type. I know the writers were/are huge fans of DOA and have handed over a large amount of the publishing on it, Miss Minogue’s version, anyway.

So, America is pushing ahead for us, although it’s through you lot I find everything out. Also, I think Japan is doing some stuff. You keep me posted, and I will keep you posted!

I like it a lot more than the regular version of "Don't Wanna Lose This Feeling." I want "Creep" or "Hey (So What)" to be the next single.

Danni is SO not liked over in England-my ex boyfriend (the reason why I am infatuated with ewan mcgregor-he looks just like him) used to tell me how much people trashed her over there...
Let the rain come down...17 days....

of course, what he doesn't realize, is that he probably doesn't personally have to give clearance for use of the video clip, especially overseas from wherever it is he signed the original recording contract...

i just love when musicians start ranting and raving about who owns what and how others can use it. they rarely know what the fuck they're talking about. they should have been so concerned back in the days when they were fat & happy and the record companies were handing them hits on a platter. remind you of anyone? hmmm
