'Waterloo Sunset' by The Kinks, 'London Calling' by the Clash, 'Down At A Tube Station At Midnight' by The Jam, 'West End Girls' by The Pet Shop Boys...
This is right up there with the best of them as an all time London anthem. Even without the vocals this would be a grade A kick arse acid trancer. The beats are tight and hypnotic, the acid is frenzied, and the builds and drops are masterful.
For us Londoners though, this is extra special. The rest of you will be left wishing you were a cockney, yes even you mancunians!
'London acid city, London acid city, our time is now'.

Whilst not one of the most powerful Stay up forever's in my opinion, this record has become such a classic as to defy descriptions as good or bad. It became the anthem of many 'reclaim the streets' protests , and the insistant sample 'London, acid ,city' has got party goers on their feet across the world.
