first time i heard the original song was on mtv and liked a bit, mostly because of the video but i quite forgot the song fast. my friend jyri lehtinen was the one who hipped onto the trouser enthusiasts remix as he was quite into them and he knew i loved his remix of dannii minogue's "all i wanna do". the remix of "looking for love" also became a favourite with it's cracking drive, lovely percussion and those sweet piano accents in the choruses.
about a year ago i saw the doublepack in one of stockholm's second-hand stores and my lept with joy and after digging around for other stuff, it was a done deal and purchased it. my interest came with the dub at hand because i knew it was vinyl only and the fact that it was a great tune and something for trancier sets. karen ramirez's vocal sort of started to enervate me at time because she sounded to much like tracey thorn in this song, that may have to do that "looking for love" is originally a everything but the girl track.
my problem was her fake dreary didn't match up with the beats and synth melodies, even though the piano is displaying that melancholi. i was after the nice driving progressive trancer with the percussion and with the dub i found it.
