      ultra nate 'free' is far superior house music imo. this is too pop.

        Excellent record + the added benefit of being able to adjust anti-skating on side B, since it's blank.

          This is one of my favourite french house tracks of all time. Sure, its ridiculously commercial, but its great fun at the same time, and whenever i hear it its my queue to dance around the living room like its 98 again. Yes, it does have its flaws, particularly the repetitive Chaka Khan samples and the fact that there's not many words in it, but its still one of those feel good tunes that just... works. I personally think its a record that's stood the test of time a lot better than quite a few other tracks. Yep, got my approval.

            I concur not worth what the asking price is just for a single sided copy.

            Cool track still though.

              Wow! The price's. Is it really worth paying what these siily sausages are asking for? No I don't think so. Its good but not that good.

                It's a lovely record, I like it just fine, the etchings are cool, I'm fine with it being a single-sided release. But for the love of God don't break the bank on this. There's a lot of cool house records out there, this is just one of them.

                  Over-played, over-rated and over-priced slab of house music. Saccharine and simplistic. There are hundreds of house tracks that are infinitely better than this.

                    I’ve collected pretty much all the Roulé series, but this one was just too mainstream for me to buy back in the day. It was over played loads and I kind of got sick of hearing it. You can’t argue it’s a cracking track and has its place in dance music history.

                      Total and utter hands down classic banger that sounds amazing on full side of 12" on the right soundsystem.
