Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - Dream of Me (Based on Love's Theme)



Link


A bit more on the dance pop side of the house from OMD (referred to under full title on this version, constantly seems to change).

Based on Love's Theme is the reference to the sample of Love's Theme by the Love Unlimited Orchestra, founded by Barry White back in the day.

So a cover of sorts or more a remix I suppose, it's ok, not anywhere near my favourite OMD track and off one of their less remembered albums I suppose.

D:Ream - U R the Best Thing



Link


Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!

A brief 2 today, starting with the appropriate D:Ream, who have their roots in Northern Ireland.

A dance-pop group who still get a bit of playtime today based on their early singles alone.

This is the debut release off their first album and it's still holding up for me, real 90's dance pop.

Juliet Roberts - Caught in the Middle



Link


A completely new one to me here, Juliet Roberts only put out 2 albums and had a couple of mildly successful soul pop hits.

This is alright really, better than I was expecting when I saw how forgotten it seemed.

Bit of dance meets soul I guess.

Oui 3 - Break From the Old Routine



Link


No idea what this is really but I kinda dig it.

Hip hop meets house and then this is something inbetween.

Oui 3 were a shortlived electronic group from London, only together for 4 years, with one album, but it's a fun time.

Utah Saints - I Want You



Link


A second entry for Utah Saints, the final single off their debut album.

Similar to the last entry, it's a blend of hip hop and electronica, not as catchy as earlier though.

Just not really clicking for me.

Jesus Jones - Zeroes and Ones



Link


A second entry for Jesus Jones off their 3rd album, Perverse.

Alt rock, with a techno/industrial influence, not generally my thing, definitely stuck in the 90's if that makes sense.

Britpop hadn't quite taken off at this stage.

UB40 - (I Can't Help) Falling in Love With You



Link


And here we are at NOW 26, and November 1993.

An unusual start, in that this song feels like it was around well before 1993, and in a sense it was, popularised by Elvis in the 60's, this version is probably best described as a cover of that.

It's catchy, probably my favourite UB40 hit in the series, a more reggae fusion styled take on the Elvis version, coming off their 10th album, Promises and Lies, I can get behind it for sure among all the UB40 entries we have had here.

Pet Shop Boys - Go West



Link


Another fascinating cover by Pet Shop Boys, covering the earlier disco hit from the Village People.

Really good, my understanding is they originally played it at AIDS benefit event before deciding to record it as a single on their 1993 album, Very.

Good stuff, just falling outside the top 100.

Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Relax



Link


Another duplicate, first one in awhile, featured originally way back on NOW 2.

This was a result of some reissue's of Frankie Goes to Hollywood's stuff in the early 90's, 10 years on from its release.

Still solid, no change to its positioning since its last review though.

M People - One Night in Heaven



Link


M People's first real big heat, the first single off their second album and the first of many dance-pop hits they would have into the late 90's in the UK.

A real late night radio tune from the 90's that I can still have a fun time with for sure.
