Just wanted to alert all PJers to the greatness of this track which got a mention on the front page today.
This is a club juggernaut of a record that takes no prisoners! Love Sensation has been sampled so many times so the track has all the best bits from Black Box's Ride On Time, Marky Mark's Good Vibrations and Cappella's Take Me Away. I need a lie down after hearing it!
This will be the sound of the summer.

I need a lie down after hearing it! I agree completely; I feel the same way about Sabrina Johnson's Peace. It's a shame this song has been copied by lesser artists and shamefully ripped off. The original is always best.

They are truly amazing, im hoping it gets a commercial release like Say Say Say/Somebody's Watchin Me.

I hope so, as Mish Mash's 'Speachless' was released too early and that could have been MASSIVE

The Freemasons mix and radio edit is also rather special, with big massive piano riffs and a big fat chunky bassline..It will be huge when its released..but the sound of the summer will be Roger Sanchez - Lost.

Love Sensation has been sampled so many times so the track has all the best bits from Black Box's Ride On Time, Marky Mark's Good Vibrations and Cappella's Take Me Away. I know. This is a track that was never a hit in it's own right but has been mined hollow and turned into a massive hit. It was also sampled on Cevin Fisher's You've Got Me Buring Up. The original is still the best though, although I think Black Box did the best job of sampling it and turning into a great record. Still on the bright side, a lot more people will have heard Loleatta Holloway's fantastic voice now. If not for all those people sampling it she probably would still remain largely unknown. Similarly, Dan Hartman who wrote it made pots of money out how many time's it's being sampled. This new version isn't that shitty dance cover I heard a few weeks ago is it? God I hope not. I hate dance covers of old songs, they are almost always shite.

How Loleatta Holloway never became a huge international star is one of the greatest pop injustices. Where other people have lungs she has a foghorn but luckily she knows just how to use it!
I've got her Salsoul compilation which is great but my favourite is a mid 90s album called The Queen's Anthems - File Under Diva which transforms her disco songs into europop stormers.
It would be great if she was involved with the promotion of this track after she was so burned by the Black Box 'fiasco' (she was furious that her voice had been used and not credited, this was the very early days of sampling).

Yeah, they got that tall French model to mime it didn't they? Katrin Quinol I think she was called. She wasn't particularly good at lip-syncing from what I've seen, but she couldn't speak English apparently. I wonder where she is now?

She looks incredible in the video for Ride On Time. Remember the rumours that she was a man? It was all quite a scandal at the time. Those were the days!

I actually don't remember as I was only about 4 at the time. My parents remembered it though (it was probably around during the last few chances they had to go clubbing regularly, bless 'em) and it was on some rubbishy nostalgia show or other which I was half paying attention to, and I heard some of the record and loved it. I also loved the whole 'scandal' of sampling a big voiced diva and getting a model who couldn't speak English to mime it for the video. I ended up playing Ride On Time for months afterwards, it is a great single I think. It also caused me to try and find Loleatta Holloway's Love Sensation, which took me ages. I eventually got it on a 'best of' album she did. I can sort of see why some people might have thought Katrin was a man though. She looked pretty stunning, but she also looked a bit of a bruiser.

My parents remembered it though (it was probably around during the last few chances they had to go clubbing regularly, bless 'em) and it was on some rubbishy nostalgia show I feel so very, very old! Ride On Time remains to this day my favourite record of all time.
