      The Dame's had 70 years of hits. A top single every decade since the 1950s - the Propellerheads were lucky enough to have her give them this one. There's a point where you go beyond simply being a hit maker, and become immortal.

    These MF’ers came on the scene and dropped ONE album in 1998 and it’s one of the most important electronic/break-beat records of all time. Every single song is a banger and has been licensed in so much media in the late ‘90s and 2000s - The Matrix, Wipeout for N64, and the very first iPod commercial to name a small fraction.

      I think genre plays a part; Propellerheads were part of the Big Beat scene which was always rather big on combining samples from older songs to make something new, so naturally if any genre was going to be combined with an old Shirley Bassey song it was going to be this one. A similar example of this effect would be Junkie XL' remix of A Little Less Conversation by Elvis Presley. I think the oldest version I can think of where an old song got modernised quite well was the synth version of Music for the Funeral March of Queen Mary that got used in A Clockwork Orange.
      A good example of the formula put in reverse that I quite like is Crazy in Love by Swing Republic which is an Electro Swing cover of Crazy in Love by Beyonce.
      Of course this rule isn't 100% true as there are genres that aren't sample based that still combine well with older genres. In recent years it's become clear that Drum and Bass goes pretty well with Rock music.
      In short, there will always be genres that blend well together, and discovering those genres is all part of the fun :D.

    I'm a mobile DJ, spinning tunes at corporate events and weddings. I loved this song when it came out and I'm still amazed at it's staying power. As fresh today as 25 years ago. That being said, I never had time to watch videos and only today saw this on UA-cam. Wow! What a great video. Making it look like it was recorded in the 60's by filming in Black & White. Even the turntables are retro, lol.
