Tom Belton delivers a funky and sexy update of a classic Jamiroquai song. The bassline is closely related to that of the original version with some great loop patterns on the choruses. Actually, a lot of this remix is closely related to the original. It's worked really well and is, in a way, like a Club Version of the original rather than a completely different remix, which can be a good thing if you like the original as much as I do!

I'd never actually heard the David Morales remix before I got this release and I have to say, the mix doesn't sound all that dated even though it is from over ten years ago! I love the vibe Dave's got going here. It could almost be considered Deep House because alot of today's Deep House is like the sound of the more retro regular-House tunes.

Out of all the reissues, I'd say that this is definately one of the best (the other one being "Love Foolosophy"). It delivers a funky up-to-date vibe on one side, whereas the older remix on the B-side can be disguised as a Deep House tune from about the year 2000!
Rated 4/5

The David Morales Dub is nearly unmixable, because it gets constanosly faster during the song.
