Let your hair down and post your random songs.

Robert Miles featuring Maria Nayler. Her vocals are superb.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcqNRaQRUog

23 years - wow. Still one of the best songs ever.

Is that house? It's a decent tune but I wanted it to break out a bit harder and really go for it.

Now the video.. superb.

A little less euro house than your suggestion and for me, far nicer vocals from Nadia Ali.

When you mentioned the name it rang a bell. She does have a really nice voice.

Here is another that I think has a stunning voice from Javah. I assume that's her stage name, but it's beautiful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkqdKG3GPOo

yes I enjoyed that thanks, never heard of her to be honest but I think I missed most of the 90's music wise living in the ME, very limited radio, one channel and same DJ who had been there from the 70's apparently. I did get to enjoy the back end of the 90's when we left, it was a strange feeling really but very enjoyable.

What I posted was my early listening, then migrated to Led Zep etc. then to things like Creed, Linkin Park, now listening enjoying Seether but mixed on my IPod mostly with very eclectic mix

I had a crush on Tina Cousins, she was stunning.

Linkin Park I was never a fan of. Much more a trance kind of guy, and I still prefer my dance - you can't put an age on it, as it's a generation thing imo.

But, I also love the 80s... what was this, 84?

my favorite song at the moment and for quite a while, loud but love the beat and the car get's it loud when I am driving alone lol.

Love the lyrics:

Before you hedge those bets you've placed against me
Be reticent of fortunes, they foretell
Your verbal defecation I can't wash away despite myself

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJgpvTTmihc

Music tastes are for different occasions and have a variety of likes, obviously not a dance song for me or for a relaxing evening snuggling on a stormy evening/night

Was also not a big fan of the 80's but when I listen to somethings from that decade these days I enjoy it a lot, you picked one of my favorite songs with that :)

However, I posted about Seether who did a cover of this and I love that, many people say it's better than the original but for me I love both versions :D

lol, no that's for the car as I said or some time alone.

The list I posted of Soul from the 60's or Sade would be the kind I would listen to in the bath, the man with the Golden Voice, the late great Sam Cooke for example but I like the offbeat dance songs from the that era, but not in the bath :), such as the Going to a Happening or:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ25SXcNRuQ

and one of my all time favorite soul songs to dance to :)

obviously music like art, movies, etc. is very subjective
