Aug 20, 2005 | 5:29 amAlthough this always regarded as the HI-NRG anthem of the 80s - I actually think it is rather weak and not one of Levine`s finest moments - I think the later remixes by various producers have definitely given the track a lift over the years. I particularly like the 90s remix on Passion and the more recent remix by Axwell. Evelyn does (as always) give it her all and she does sound in good voice!

The term "High Energy" along with the music was alive and kicking since the late 70's, for example "After Dark" (128BPM) by Patti Brooks and countless similar others were grouped as "High energy" music by Djs of the day.
