dbp:quote
  • "This is special because it's a seminal dance track. It reminds me of when I first DJed at Sunrise. Another DJ was doing the last set and it wasn't going down too well, people were getting agitated and throwing things at him; he refused to play and I went back on and this was the first track — it got the best response I've ever had as a DJ. I play it when I do Back To '89 and if I'm in the mood I'll play it at Speed — you have to create a vibe and it takes everyone by surprise. (en)
  • "I remember playing this when it first came out in 1986/87 – long before the summer of love explosion in '88. I played it at Pyramid at Heaven and was probably the first person to play this in England. The crowd went crazy. A couple of days later I played at a straight club and it cleared the floor." (en)
