I like the Greek Sabrina more. Her song "Breakfast Time (Supna)" has the same beat as "I'm A Slave 4 U."

It was released twice in the UK. It was a surprise hit in the UK because of that. When I was junior high school, some of my peers had that song on their favourite song list before it's initial UK release. In the US it was a minour club hit as a matter of fact I heard it at my local club about a few years ago on "80s Retro Night". I had the 12inch club mix on CD however someone left town with my classic CD of rare 80s club mixes.

Who? At first I thought it was a song from the Sabrina The Teenage Witch show!  |

A friend of mine had been listening to this song a lot during the last few months and I got it and now I'm a little obsessed with it!
It's so addictive.
When I first heard it, I knew I had heard some of it somewhere else. All of the instrumental and most of the chorus had been used in this one Indian song from over 10 years ago called "Sexy Sexy". The "Boys boys boys" part is used quite prominently. Can we say lawsuit??

Gee, I wonder why this video is such a classic all over Europe and Latin America. Not a fan of the song but the video is legendary.
