BigBen 0 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Personally, really like it, love the video too - it's one of those songs you can't get out of your head for the rest of the day when you hear it. But what are the best tunes to play with it..? I mean, do you aim at the older market and keep with the wartime theme (Vera Lynn!) or play it in a medium tempo dance/RnB set?

EdBray 0 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 I love this track, first heard it when I bought the Basics album before Xmas. Went down well at the couple of bookings I have played it at recently.

RobbieD 0 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Personally I love it, but didn't think it was anything I would ever play out (when the album first came out). Until I had it requested at a late Christmas party (in January). I wasn't sure whether to play it, but as the night was going well, and the two girls requesting it were persistent, I decided to give it a go. At first it cleared half the floor and I was getting ready to move on, but slowly others got up to join those who stayed on the floor. Now it's getting air play I wouldn't hesitate to play it with the right crowd. I'd take it out of any girly pop/R&B, and follow it with something fast in the R&B mould, such as Hey Ya!, or as a transition track into an uptempo girly party set (Toni Basil's Mickey for example).

Paul Smith 0 Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Normally it's quite easy to team a track up with a few others but I've spent the last hour trying to find something that works well with this one. The closest I've got thus far is the Glen Miller Medley by the John Anderson Big Band. For coming out of it with a genre change I've found that Blondie - One Way Or Another and Mambo No. 5 both work well. Work In Progress..... smile icon Link to post Share on other sites
