this was a find from one of my many trips of the multitudes of secondhand stores in stockholm. i had no clue about the song or the film it was the theme for. i am almost positive that i bought it because two of the remix titles said bump and the progressive house act sprung to my head. fact is that there was none of that and bump was just as a description, the music i found on this single was just r&b.
although "just r&b" is not really truthful as the disco roots of the song is conveyed with a boogie-esque production. however that is just what has been used as musically it is a bit different from evelyn "champagne" king's original. that doesn't really take from the brilliance of the cover and it really helps with the bassline being that good. i also love the way jean norris & renée neufville harmonize on the vocals as they are singing alternate lines of lyrics.
something tells me that this is the right type of song to get a revival from the neodisco crowd as it's fits perfect with what is normally played. it's also in the right temp and the extended club mix has enough mixability to work in sets. great stuff.
