bought it in 1990 at a discount (only €0,99 cd-r and still have it) and nobody listened to it. I was crazy for more than 1 year, then the stonebridge version came out and it went mainstream. For me this original version is the one with that special underground feeling
Never EVER! Stonebridge defines the 1990's. This feels like rehashed 70's with 80's synths thrown on top and an average sax solo. Not bad, but no Stonebridge. Stonebridge was simplistically & magically PERFECT.
Hi Patrick, Here name of the musician who play the synths and work with this song. Fred McFarlane (died September 2016) was a keyboardist, producer, songwriter and remixer. He is perhaps most noted for producing, among others, Jocelyn Brown's classic "Somebody Else's Guy," Robin S.'s "Show Me Love" and Dennis Taylor's "In The Mood."
I never bought this version when it came out in 1990. It was only two years later when I got the Nick Nice version on Promo and then discovered the Stonebridge mix on the UK vinyl (Champion) that the song actually made it on my playlist. Shortly thereafter, I received the US Promo on Big Beat.
Wow - so different from the version that blew up lol. It's interesting how this sounds very "80s" to me, but the other one sounds very "early 90s", yet both were recorded within two years of each other at the start of the decade. Not sure if that's cause the Stonebridge version influenced others, or if that brand of house just had its moment in the sun and that track was among them, but as a kid I remember lots of songs on the radio circa '91-'94 that sounded a whole lot like the stonebridge club mix, at least the drums, if not the synth organ bass. There's so much more going on in this track than the remix -- i'm sure the simplicity of the popular version is part of why its still played today and this one...isn't (this version more interesting IMO)
I was just speaking to someone about how from 1989-1992 culture changed so quick... not that's a flash in the pan. Now think of like 2011-2014 or even 2019-2023... not a huge change in music and style and stuff within those ranges! Very interesting
No you’re right. A banger though this is, it would have sounded dated in 1990. The bassline reeks of Inner City’s ‘Big Fun’ and other tribal hiphouse tracks from 1988/89. 1990 was the year of euphoric bleepy bloopy beats, not primitive stuff like this. Think ‘Naked in the Rain’ by Blue Pearl and ‘Anthem’ by N-Joi.
Omg. I'm just discovering the original?! I love it. Especially the 80's synth stabs @1:08. Which sounds exactly like another 80s funk song, but can't figure it out! Shit! Ahhh I can't figure it out. Help me please. EDIT: Figured it out! Jocelyn Brown - Somebody Else's Guy. Yay! Thanks Fred McFarlane for the dope tracks
titre que j'ai découvert dans "le hit des clubs NRJ Médiacontrol" en 1990, j'ai toujours la cassette ! e Et oui ! oui ! oui ! c'est pour moi aussi LA meilleure version de ce titre (bien que le remix 92 soit une bombe qui tue également) .
MAIS C EST UN DIAMANT Robin s top du top 90 super voix ouah j écouter a l époque est les musique de ma vie 14 ans . mais la version funk truc de fou je l écoute en boucle funk you merci pour le partage
cette chanson est une vraie bombe. La première fois que je l'ai écouté c'était en boite dans les années 90 et depuis je ne cesse de l'écouter à la moindre occasion. Ohhhh le bon vieux temps.
@@sebhma Compared to the hit remake this is terrible, its very average, maybe for 1990 was ok, but funny I only heard this for the first time in 2020 so that shows something, it ain;t kickin it. The remix is more than a classic track, but if it wasn't for this version there may not of been a remake. Great voice.
Finding this reminds me of when I discovered the original, non-hit mix of "Where Love Lives" by Alison Limerick. It was shockingly different, but pleasant. UPDATE: I just checked to see if that one is uploaded to UA-cam, and I don't think it is anywhere! Someone should upload that one for comparison.
What's funky about Andrea's story is her saying she heard them playing the organ riff u hear in the 93 remix but that didn't exist when this first was released, so it leads me to think something is off with her story. Either Andrea was lying or she just is just misremembering if that's even a thing. Hear it? There's no organ do do do here at all, there's just here and there some piano/fender sounding stuff but not at the beginning. And this is 3 entire years before that version even existed. And they didn't RERECORD it, it was just another remix. I want to believe Andrea but it's flawed.
@@smurf902The people involved confirm that Andrea sang the demo and there are nearly no differences with the 92 version so she could've recorded this first version back in 1990 and didn't realise of its release until the 1992 mix became huge worldwide. It's funny that she didn't realise about that either, it was her sister who called her saying that's she's on the radio, Andrea said it was 2 years after she made that demo so it makes sense that she recorded this in 1990 and then she realised her voice was on radio 2 years later / in 1992.
@@RafaelSantos-dc2dl merci l'ami en tout bravo car Robin's je l'ai decouverte qu'en 1993 avec MTV europe et le top of the pop. Quoique j'ai un doute si elle passait sur Maxximum j'ai du l'entendre. L'album de 1993 une pepite et robin juste parfaite
This straight up sounds like a Sonic the Hedgehog BGM track. Considering I grew up more fixated on video games than dance music, I find it so fascinating now to come across music that inspired the music of video games I'm nostalgic for. There's so much out there in the music world to still discover. I don't know whether the composers of Sonic CD and Sonic Adventure and whatever other games had similar music knew of this song specifically and were inspired by it, but it's certainly within the same league.
Michael Jackson wrote the Sonic 3 soundtrack. However, the soundtracks for 1 and 2 were written by the keyboardist for Japanese synth pop group ‘Dreams Come True’. If you listen to their first two albums you can hear quite a lot of similar musical phrasing. There’s a song on the first album that’s straight-up Green Hill Zone!
I mean most of what people consider "video game music" is just European style dance music. The kind that Americans usually avoid which is why they think it's a genre
Weirdly Beyonce has credited McFarlane and George on her new single Break My Soul, because it uses the M1 organ sound...........which StoneBridge employed on the much more famous remix. Someone's got their wires crossed.
Here from the making of show me love from dj mag! I never knew this was the original song before it was remixed. I love this version too!
Same. And also coming from DJ Mag. All roads lead here 😁
can u explain to me why stonebridge isnt credited on the famous version on spotify?
Same here! I even met Stonebridge 14 years ago JUST when he met Robin and I still didn’t know this version
@@Agge1914it’s a remix….that’s the law of copyright
Me too
How was I completely unaware that there was an original version?! #90s #housemusic
Ian Ibiza I'm an 80s baby and just found this lol
I found out like 5 minutes ago… mind blown
I actually know there's an original version but I never listen to it. This is my first time listening to it.

I prefer this version than more 1993 version remix and released by Atlantic Records
I love the version that went mainstream, and after hearing this one I love the song even more - this is really cool!
I love the Stonebridge remix, but starting to like the original version more
yesh the og is more sophisticated and adult, if that makes sense.

no comments on how GREAT Robin's voice sound UNPITCHED here ? ?
Wow I never knew of the original before, nice!
It’s crazy. Like a complete different jam. Completely different feel to it. I like both.
Stonebridge were responsible for the latter version
I love the original so much!
Great version!!
Love the synths from 1:08 on playing Jocelyn Browns ' Somebody else's guy'
There's another melody I can't put on finger on just before that at 1:04
@@MrVuvu reminds a bit of Shakatak, too
That melody at 1:04 is from ‘Sure Shot’ by Tracy Weber. Roisin Murphy also used it in ‘Let Me Know’

1990 was still very much “80’s” in terms of style, music etc. by 1993 the 90’s was starting to find its own identity and you can see that here.
I was just speaking to someone about how from 1989-1992 culture changed so quick... not that's a flash in the pan. Now think of like 2011-2014 or even 2019-2023... not a huge change in music and style and stuff within those ranges! Very interesting
It sounds like a mash between the two the synthesizer sounds very 80s but the piano sounds 90s neo soul
No you’re right. A banger though this is, it would have sounded dated in 1990. The bassline reeks of Inner City’s ‘Big Fun’ and other tribal hiphouse tracks from 1988/89. 1990 was the year of euphoric bleepy bloopy beats, not primitive stuff like this.

Original version is kinda boring. The dance rework was amazing
This is fantastic. This era and style comes back.
First time hearing this. I'm convinced Robin could sing over a bunch of rocks thrown in the garbage disposal and it would sound like magic!
Never heard this but I love it.
it's a beauty; it's an 80s club tune - beautiful
the 1993 remix of course adds outstanding house layers that cannot be denied, catapulted the lyrics
A1 Perfection - This original is AMAZING!!!
I love so much the 1992 version, but the original is really good too. Thanx for the share.

Merci pour la qualité !!

Oh que oui funky en plus turie 👌
Comment tu dis Olivier, enfin l original!! Merci beaucoup!!!
I am shocked she didn't like this song!! It was beautiful! both this version and the deep house version. I actually like Love 4 Love the best.

This ticks all my boxes it's class... Robin you got it all going on" pure talent... saxophone melt down or wat 🎧🎷
This version is so much more disco. Reminds me of Love Sensation

DEFINITIEY OK BUT NOT THE BEST. STONEBRIDGE MIX IS NOW MUSIC HISTORY. I only heard this for the first time in 2020, it’s good but not cosmic
I like that it has more of a melody line. Stonebridge changed the whole tune. It's fascinating what a remix can do!

c'est la meilleur version ,quel souvenir ,!!!
i still can’t believe this is the original version???!!!😂😂😂😂😂

I like it! ^_^
