A minor success for Banton, this was a cover of a track originally done by the Young Rascals.
It's just really smooth and puts you at ease, he wasn't achieving massive mainstream success at this stage, but he's left a good impression on me.

Jazz It Up was the lead single of Reel 2 Real's second and final studio album, they certainly jazzed it up.
Not as catchy as some of the stuff off their earlier album, and I think they were waning at this stage, still a fun dance romp, but the group had run its course and would finish up in 1997.

Umboza were a short lived UK duo, this being the most successful of their 3 releases in the 2 years they were together.

Originally a hit for Musique back in the late 70's, Todd Terry laid out this new version in 1996, with vocals from Martha Wash, of the Weather Girls, and Musique member Jocelyn Brown.
It hasn't really captured my attention, I enjoyed Terry's only other effort here, a version of Everything But the Girls, Missing, but this isn't doing the same for me.

One of those rare house tracks that seems to transcend genres and still seems to do well today.
Robert Miles was an Italian DJ, anglicising his stage name, this was the debut single of his debut album and it was a huge success, biggest selling in Europe in 1996 and spent something like 13 weeks at the top of European charts.
It was apparently designed to calm people at raves before driving home, after a spate of car crashes, makes the video make somebit of sense.
It's not usually my cup of tea, but I do appreciate it for what it was and what it symbolises, and I can remember it being a huge deal.
Miles passed away at the age of 47 from cancer nearly a decade ago, far too young.

The first single of George Michael's 3rd solo album, Older, it was written as a tribute to a former lover of his.
Pop ballad's of this nature just don't get a whole lot of attention from me, but I do enjoy a lot of George Michael's music nonetheless.

Is it overplayed? Of course. But it's too much of a big deal to not include it here, it was something of a phenomenon and pretty much everyone knows it.
It was out over a year before it featured on NOW 34, and even the follow up single had made it on here, but they went back to it.
Anyway, here's Wonderwall.
