A lot of people here shocked there's an original Danish version of a massive international hit. Wait until I tell you about Natalie Imbruglia's "Torn"... ;)
@choncord Essentially the same deal! Originally released by a Danish singer (in a Danish version), then by an American band (in English), then by a Norwegian singer (in English) before Natalie recorded her version. :)
This is my first time hearing this version. I didn't know Jamelia's was a cover. Personally I like Jamelia's version more. It just has a good R&B vibe that fits the song well
@@nikoskabbadias Agreed. If anything Jamelia sounds nothing like R&B on her version. I remember being puzzled at the time that the song was marketed as R&B because it's pure Swedish pop, much like Britney Spears, A-Teen stuff. The duo that made this song are Swedish.
When the "home market" have a population of 5.5 million people, it's difficult to go "worldwide" with a song. Then it was offered on "the market" and Jamilia, home market is 65 million, picked it up and did her Hit.
Marie Jo uh no Jamelia didn't 'steal' it. The producers Cutfather & Joe gave it to her to record for her debut album. It's happened a few times that a production of theirs is duplicated. Look at Kylie Minogue's All I See and Jordin Sparks' One Step At A Time. Exact same backing track.
cmrnff Well then at least Jamelia could sing it in another Way. But no she sounds just like Christine. That just says more about how Jamelia dont respect other artists. Yes not Jamelias fault it was given to her, but she could make her own version of it. Now people Think Jamelia made the original one unless they do some research first. And not only does Jamelia take all credit for it, where is the original artist is all forgotten. Shame on Jamelia and the producers too.
I came here searching for the background voice I heard in the Jamelia's version. I heard a voice that does not belong there but higher. I did a background check and well here we are! I love this! You deserve the credit for this song!
Remee is one of the song writers and producers of this song, and in an interview with the Danish national radio (channel3/P3) it's stated that he also did background vocals on the song.
The song is originally Danish and was presented by Remee, Cutfather and a third guy. Christine got the song from a TV show called Popstars but Remee and cutfather did represent the song for other people. Jamelias agent called the guys and said that they also wanted the song. So the compromise was like this😊
YES I FINELY FOUND IT👍👌👍😀😀..I heard this song 4 some years ago but the only 1 i could find was Jamelia so i bought that singel..But it was this 1 i really wanted & now i found it here on UA-cam😀😀So thx 2 UA-cam & that we can find a lot of good songs & music👍👌👍😀🙏🤝💖❤️💖🎤..This song i’m gonna listen a lot 2😀😀..!..I was so desipointed back then when i could’nt find it,but now so many years later it came up here👍👌👍😃😃😀A big smile on my mouth now😄😄😄
The male dancer in orange singlet and jeans looks like he is a ballet dancer by training. His movements are beautiful. I wish the video had more of him.

I was today years old when i found out this is the og 😭 And it's the fact that Jamelia's cover only had different vocals and some lyrics changes but the instrumentals are 100% the same 😭
This isn't the demo tape, this is the first artist accepting the song, 1 month before Jamelia accepted the same offer . Creators had a contract clause that this girl would loose if a bigger label came along . And Jamelia had the bigger label .
@DeliciousNicNat She is the original singer behind Jamelia's international hit single "Superstar", which was written and produced by Danish producers Cutfather & Joe and Remee in 2003
Pop music is a different beast. Release a hit in one year and it does pretty well. Then release a cover of it (in the same year no less) and it charts even higher! I guess if Christine would have written the song, she'd have been pretty pissed off, but hey, most popstars are vessels which are discarded like laughing gas canisters in the road - it's the music that matters to the fatcats
That's OTT. If she was a writer she may or may not have authorised it. Some artists do. The writers/producers are Danish like Christine, it was a hit. Jamelia's label may have scouted songs for her or the writers had a deal with the label. Jamelia's version is iconic. If an artist doesn't like it, they should write their own music. It's not the only 2000s song that was re-recorded. Kylie Minogue's "On A Night Like This" was originally recorded by Pandora in 1999, the composers were disappointed it wasn't a hit, gave it to Kylie, and well 💁🏻♀. It's not just pop or the 2000s. A lot of the 60s and 70s pop, rock, blues were covers within years of each other or even the same year. 80s, 90s adult contemporary, pop (eg Celine DIon's songs)
Maybe Jamelia was the one making it famous internationally, but it doesn´t mean that she is more talented. The musical industry is simply bigger in the UK, US etc.
Here in the UK this song was used for a kids clothing advert when I was young. The other day the advert and song popped into my head and now I'm binge listening to this because I never knew the song title before.
i like both versions but expected way more than 710 subscribers to support this kind of talent.
I do too
I like both versions too. Watching it you can see it’s dated but at least it’s not today’s crap.
A lot of people here shocked there's an original Danish version of a massive international hit. Wait until I tell you about Natalie Imbruglia's "Torn"... ;)
What about torn?
@choncord Essentially the same deal! Originally released by a Danish singer (in a Danish version), then by an American band (in English), then by a Norwegian singer (in English) before Natalie recorded her version. :)
My life is a lie.
SUN ZAHO haha same here
Same here i never thought that this the original version..
Same
Your life on this world is a lie not in the hereafter though
Haha, then check Nathalie Im ruglias biggest hit, also from a Danish song ;)
This is my first time hearing this version. I didn't know Jamelia's was a cover. Personally I like Jamelia's version more. It just has a good R&B vibe that fits the song well
🙁 me too lol
what R&B vibe. you re just saying it because Jamelia is black. its literally the same sound.
@@nikoskabbadias Nah Jamelias was just better. The whole vibe, even the video. This video gives me stiff vibes
@@nikoskabbadias Agreed. If anything Jamelia sounds nothing like R&B on her version. I remember being puzzled at the time that the song was marketed as R&B because it's pure Swedish pop, much like Britney Spears, A-Teen stuff. The duo that made this song are Swedish.

Lmao at the choreographer line. 😭😭😭😂😂😂
I wonder if it was the original line- would sound so odd...
It almost sounds like those horrible histories spoofs
@@Ben-yj8ye .🤔😑.
Huh?!.
@@delete---7593 if you haven’t watched Horrible Histories then you’ll not know what I am pertaining to
This must be an unreality version! I’m still wrapping my head around the fact that this was the original!!!
When the "home market" have a population of 5.5 million people, it's difficult to go "worldwide" with a song.
Then it was offered on "the market" and Jamilia, home market is 65 million, picked it up and did her Hit.
So that's the Original!
At least Jamelia called her's a cover. J-Lo says she wrote an original called Can't Get Enough.
Christine Milton ftw and she deserves all the credits for this song.
ua-cam.com/video/sMG1nlQi5bg/v-deo.html
Well, the song belongs to the writers.
Cогласен!!! Только Christine Milton - она истинная королева! И никто больше !!!😍🤩😘❤❤❤💋👋👋👋👍
Thank you UA-cam Shorts, for reminding me a part of my nostalgia.
Merry Christmas everyone!
I've never heard of her until now
too much lie in life
Until now... ;-)
i can barely tell the difference between the two versions!!
Jamelia can sing...that's one difference.
It always confused the fuck out of me I never what version I listend to
Exactly Jamelia stole the song. She sings it completely like Christine. If she was covering it she would sing it her own Way.
Marie Jo uh no Jamelia didn't 'steal' it. The producers Cutfather & Joe gave it to her to record for her debut album.
It's happened a few times that a production of theirs is duplicated. Look at Kylie Minogue's All I See and Jordin Sparks' One Step At A Time.
Exact same backing track.

Much more better than the following versions!
Watching this awesome stuff in 2020!
I came here searching for the background voice I heard in the Jamelia's version. I heard a voice that does not belong there but higher. I did a background check and well here we are! I love this! You deserve the credit for this song!
Could u tell me what background voice? Is it the man? x
They left some of the backing vocals of this on Jamelia's, but I don't know who the singers are
Remee is one of the song writers and producers of this song, and in an interview with the Danish national radio (channel3/P3) it's stated that he also did background vocals on the song.
I honestly didn't know that there was another version just before Jamelia's. Just like that, I'm gonna show this version some respect
The song is originally Danish and was presented by Remee, Cutfather and a third guy. Christine got the song from a TV show called Popstars but Remee and cutfather did represent the song for other people. Jamelias agent called the guys and said that they also wanted the song.

That moment when you completely forget a song from your teen years and rediscover it by accident! I love you UA-cam, you're a superstar!

What are you that slow or something?. 😐😑.
@@delete---7593 No. I just didn’t know. I don’t think the cover version was a thing in Denmark
Uhahaha
I can't believe this song is 20 years old. 😱
This lady can sing...and she can move, too.
I prefer this version, both song and video, to the Jamelia cover.
Christine Milton came out with this song first and is the Queen !!
I'd always heard this song in the bus, back home from highscool. They always played it in the radio :)
J'adore !!!
The best !!!
I prefer this version.
Been looking for ages finally, after 7 yrs i found this song! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Xxx
I think u we’re looking Jamelia’s version
love this song
The camerawork is awesome ❤️
Still hear this song 2020 . Love its . 😘
my first time see the singer and the video clip, i heard this song when i was a kid, and now i found it 😊
that would have been the Jamelia version you heard. That was the famous one. No one knew this was the original
Omg I can’t believe I found it!! I just remembered the song but when I searched for it it was the other version that kept coming up!
The male dancer in orange singlet and jeans looks like he is a ballet dancer by training. His movements are beautiful. I wish the video had more of him.
I love it! :-*
I'm so glad I dug out the original version! Love her singin!!!

@@delete---7593 the Jamelia version is most popular. This version of superstar is virtually unknown.
7 weeks number one in denmark!
2023. Childhood days. This song still rocks. 👌
The best version
woah this is a bop
People always talk about
(Way oh, way oh way oh)
All the things they're all about
(Way oh, way oh way oh)
Write it on a piece of paper
Got a feeling I'll see you later
There's something 'bout this
Let's keep it moving
And if it's good
Let's just get something cooking
'Cause I really wanna rock with you
I'm feeling some connection to the things you do
(You do, you do)
I don't know what it is
That makes me feel like this
I don't know who you are
But you must be some kind of superstar
'Cause you move like you got some kind of choreographer
(You just make me wanna play)
Baby take a look around
(Way oh, way oh way oh)
Everybody's getting down
(Way oh, way oh way oh)
Deal with all the problems later
DJ don't touch that cross-fader
There's something 'bout you

You're so cool
Can we get a little closer
You..
Rock it just like you're supossed to
Hey..

Fantastisk...........

Why is everyone so shocked, surprised and/or upset? So many popular songs are covers, samples, remakes, etc. and it's not something new lol
Because voice sound the same THAT'S WHY!. 😡🤬.
@@delete---7593 Their voices do not sound the same. Jamelia is the better singer
Omg!!! I feel sooo bad!!!
Literally never heard this version till right now. I always thought Jamelias was the original.

Easily the best version💯💯
this song bringing back memories, what a time, this was the version i grew up with in denmark :)
What the kung fu dance is that?
MUITO BOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
super..
Numéro 1 vamos
This is almost like the version that's handed to record companies to pass on to artists.
Exactly
That's called a "demo".
The writers/producers are danish and so is the singer. It spent 7 weeks at #1 on the Danish Singles chart.
This isn't the demo tape, this is the first artist accepting the song, 1 month before Jamelia accepted the same offer . Creators had a contract clause that this girl would loose if a bigger label came along . And Jamelia had the bigger label .

im too biased towards jamelia! i cant help it! i never knew this is the original lol

Omg, the instrumental really is exactly the same ! I never knew this.
It is a sin that you have less than 600 followers. .. You should have 60,000,000! Great flow!

This literally sounds exactly like Jamelia's version in terms of their voices...
Nice. GO sang :b
pretty song beautiful girl :P
she is pretty ^^
There's a few lyrical changes Jamelia's version did to the UK no.3 hit.
I doubt I'll ever hear the word 'choreographer' in a UK pop song ever.
in the original a line say "DJ don't touch that cross-fader" in the Jamila version it is "Bad boy's on ther best behavior" ;-)
Pop music is a different beast. Release a hit in one year and it does pretty well. Then release a cover of it (in the same year no less) and it charts even higher!

My childhood was just full of lies
This exactly
I'm going to support my fellow Brummie Jamelia
This version is not it
Belive it or not she was a teatcher at my school :D!
Littlewitendk oh Yh miss Milton great times!
This is such a strange video but it's in good company with many of the pop videos that came out during this time.
Wow so this was the original.
I had no idea!
Maybe Jamelia was the one making it famous internationally, but it doesn´t mean that she is more talented. The musical industry is simply bigger in the UK, US etc.
I wonder why this original version didn't get commercial success instead the cover of jamelia has been a huge success in different country
I am pretty sure that choreographer line has something to do with it. What a complicated word for a chorus.
Jamelia's version brings me huge nostalgia from my childhood. This version does too XD
So much better than Jamelias version... They should have marketed this version world wide
