One of my favorite songs from 1991. I first remember hearing this song in the summer of 1991 on Joel Denver's Future Hits when he was recapping the BBC Top 5.

I like it. This was the first #1 song on Billboard's Hot 100 when they switched to BDS and SoundScan data.

I like that song. I never heard it back in 1991. It's on a various artists old school rap CD I have though. The music in that song is good.

PM Dawn had some great songs. This was one of them. I also prefer "I'd Die Without You", but this may be their second best single.

BSB version was a snoozer, but this is probably a little better. I won't be sure how much better until reception replies.

This was excellent. Very different from anything else on the chart at the time, or even now.

The Backstreet Boys had a version but it wasn't very good. :(

I really liked this song, but then I really liked the song that this sampled so it shouldn't be a surprise.

Using Spandau Ballet's 1983 one-hit wonder True as a sample does serve its purpose for this tune. It's unusually a decent song that had performed well. I used to have the long version of it from one of those "MTV Party To Go" CDs. Like everyone else, I'd Die Without You is also a good song in both the original and the urban remix versions.

I like it. I have a long remix of the song recorded from 'American Dance Traxx' with Jeff Wyatt.

I recently heard the album version. It's slightly different that the radio version, which has more "na na na na na's" in it.

I Love this. I believe this was the first #1 hit on the Hot 100 in the Soundscan era.

I have such an aversion to "True" that I've never even liked anything that samples it.

Easily their best song. One of many songs that sampled the "Ashley's Roachclip" drum break, although this is the first song that I was familiar with with that break. Used to hear this song alot on B96 when it came out and the station continued to play it as gold/recurrent throughout the 90s. PS, there's another thread on this song pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/96755/dawn-set-adriff-memory-bliss
