there's also a Taxi 12" discomix with that title... not sure if it was Jimmy Riley.. You can find them often in the crap/bargain bins.

That's a curious comment. What is is that you find so offensive that would make you call it "crap"? The song, the singer, or the production?

I think it's a great version. People certainly responded to it "back in the day" on the dancefloor. As for bargain bins - they really aren't an indication of quality. Much of the stuff you see on E-Bay today for crazy prices were easy to get years ago in these "bargain bins".

Though i can't speak for Han, i'm pretty sure he was neither commenting on the quality of the track nor on the quality level of the bargain bins..
Cheer up davek!
There's a nice version by Devon Russel on Studio 1 as well. That one sticks close to the original.

@Nilo82 & Hans

Thanks for clarifying. I was wondering why "bargain bins = crap", or what was objectionable about the song itself, but I obviously mis-read the post.

And I am pretty cheerful today, even though it's raining cats and dogs here!

Thanks for all the input although I do not care to much for the 'crap' discussion. Unfortunatly the song i am reffering to is not the Jimmy Riley version. It is is not well sung and more of a toasters version.

Some of the lyrics here

I don't know this song but in the lyrics you're quoting Junior Delahaye, maybe he is the singer/toaster ?
"It seems that mankind has been reborn again, the worst of enemies is now my best friend... and everything, yeah, is gonna be alright"
