Was popular club dance song need help identfying

[snowshark60504]

OK all you DJs, the song would start with sirens going off, but its not Knock on Wood or You Dropped a bomb on Me. It went from sirens going off into a fast upbeat repeating tempo and then singing, I think a woman with deep voice.

Any help be appreciated, I guess I drank little too much when at club to remember artist, LOL.

Those were the days, nothing compares now to that era.

Hmmmm....I'm thinking perhaps it could be the song Panic by French Kiss. It starts out with tremendous sirens but the vocals are anything but deep-voiced....more like Anita Ward's chirping. One of my all-time favourites though!

How about "Breaking and Entering" by Dee Dee Sharp?

[pepper1dancer]

I bet it's (I know) I'm losing you by Uptown. Oaklawn Records

[NickNack]

If it's early disco, try "Armed & Extremely Dangerous" by First Choice. She's got that 'deep' voice. :)

[Charlie Windle]

And if it's early 80's - Marsha Raven - False Alarm.

In reading the original post again, I don't remember any sirens in "Knock On Wood" although at the end, the horns wail down like a siren.

So in substituting horns for sirens, and adding in another part of your description of "fast upbeat repeating tempo", I am going to add in "Babe, We're Gonna Love Tonite" by Lime.

"those were the days, nothing new compares to that era now"....You said a MOUTHFULL bro. You know what else? If I'd known in advance that the good times wouldn't last, I would have enjoyed them EVEN MORE than I did. The worst part of it is, the only thing I have that's a solid reminder of those times is the records (I have incredible memories of the good times, but memories aren't solid). All the places (well, most) I partied in are gone or radically changed, and sadly, many of the people I partied with are gone also. All I have are the records.....
