Shawn Christopher - Another Sleepless Night (1990)

[GrimmBudda]

deep soul house....She is a Diva.....

[KingSergey2]

she's my choir teacher's friend!

[ibdagigman]

Awesome lady. Saw her twice with Sonia Dada, what a talent! What a nice person!

[DarianCrouse]

Never saw the vis till today. Thanks!!

[saltwatercb]

I love this song. It reminds me of dancing shirtless on Sunday nights at the leather bar, Ramrod, in Boston when I was 21 and newly out of the closet! LOL! Deep house in the first half of the 90s was made for fierce clubbing for sure: Jomanda, Snap, Black Box, Kym Mazelle, Mocca Soul--a soundtrack to dancing nights of young energy, freedom and fun.

[hipsam33]

Deep House Classic!!! Love it!!! :-)

[MiniScalope]

classic.... i know very well this track but i don't even known that was her...

[knotty1atl]

was just going through some old 12 inch vinyl. had to pull this up cause i couldnt remember how this went... love it

[Chkhito999]

I Was Born In 1990:) when I'm listening to this I'm missing 90's..

[cartaginian]

Love it, great track. I just heard it on Roger Sanchez's Release yourself podcast

[melcoba]

Great song & great memories of The Limelight in Manhattan, New York City in 1991.

I ❤ this song and one my favorite dance songs of the 90's.

[synaker]

I've searched for this song for years but I never knew who sang it, I am astonished!!, I friggin LOVE YOutube!, it's like having a Video Dictionary!

[schmatever]

I got the original with Morales mixes plus grabbed a copy of the limited Red Zone mixes... good investment!!

[paulboothman1]

One ov my "All tme faves" By a Lng Shot . . :)

[OoMASEoO]

"they're only pawns in the game you play, just part of the masquerade"

genius

[CoryAnthonyBilicko]

This has always been one of my favorite "dance" songs ever! And it still is.

[ibdagigman]

Shawn is such a sweet woman. A real class act!

[coldfreshair]

To me this is the greatest poem, the greatest art, the greatest comfort - it´s just very good. It´s not dance, house, garage, soul, pop, just a human, musical and timeless expression, to me now.

[cubismic]

Can someone write here the chorus of this song? Can´t find it when i was searching for the lyrics!? I mean the part when she sings " I can´t take another sleepless night........"!? THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[OoMASEoO]

@cubismic

i can't take another sleepless night,

(i want your love)

wonderin if you're tryin to hurt me with your (lyin)

in my life i find the force inside

(gotta move on)

gotta move on, gotta let you go

(let you go)

[reggie583]

I remember this coming on the morning of the "Big Breakup". I had been up all night thinking of what to do and this came on as I was walking to the 2 train. Laid it all out for me in four minutes flat. I smiled from Gun Hill Road to 34th St. Thanks Shawn Christopher and the writer and everyone else involved-- who knows how tragic my life would've been!!! LOL

[DCarlucci100]

The only time in my life when in 1993 i called up a radio sation and played this to them with my tape recorder and the girl on the phone immediately said: shawn christopher, another sleepless night. Where are they now?

[zelen35]

what radio station was it do you remember?

[elmwoodparkhood]

@DCarlucci100 I think Shawn Christopher is now a singer at Willowcreek Church in Barrington, Illinois,.

[OoMASEoO]

ugh, story of my life

:*(

[vertikallimitz]

Still one of my most favorite pieces, pure classic, new stuff just doesn't comes close.

[househeadericmd]

what a classic - hard to believe it's almost 20 years old!!!!

[Moppsable]

Klassisk gayikon-diva i Kym Mazelle-klass gör en av de bästa houselåtarna här, dyrkad på gayklubbarna. Jag kom på ett sätt ut med denna låt och den finns alltid med i en sann gaydisco-kille. Många är vi som älskar Shawn och saknar henne ! Kultlåt för oss och våra trendiga housegolv ! Go Shawn, girl !

[DCarlucci100]

One of the most awsome songs. I wish they did more than a one hit wonder of all times!

[TheSrdave91]

ths song have a remix of house !!!

mad8 - work this pussy (original mix )

very very amazing !

[DeepzoneAlesis]

Yes.

Dino Lenny vs Mad8- Another Sleepless Night very very very very fine remix!! Another remixes has came out with the same remix of Dino Lenny & Mad 8 (2009) on the label Ego Music

[saltwatercb]

God bless house music!  I love this song. It's funky and elegant all at once. Let's hear it for Shawn Christopher, Jomanda, Crystal Waters, Ultra Nate, Livin' Joy, Mocca Soul, Snap, Black Box, and all the rest!!! Loved dancing to this at The Ramrod in Boston.

[dcflava74]

Classic house ,especially the ones done by the woman had a certain classy feel to it as well as funky and gospel tinged,i always get goosebumps listening to the house of the late 80,s and early 90,s,it,s just not the same anymore,the wack and mediocre techno sound as well as the gay influence had taken over.

[DDJJSSEEXXYY]

Amazing ....(Y) .... So Good :D

[CookyMonzta]

House at its very best! Another one I have in my collection.

[koolzainski]

late summer 1990 actually

[cantforgetyou]

This song really takes me back. The days of going to acid house partys. (no drugs) Great time. Now I'm old and my life is still great, but in these days everything looked easier. A lot of people I've lost along the way. But that's life. Thanks for posting. I'm really going back in time.

[BronxNYSalsera]

Omg this song too! I'm glad I found it I haven't heard this one in years! :)

[househeadericmd]

classic house jam!!!!!

[iainpd1963]

[zombiemod]

I tried to move a little closer to your heart....

fantastic!!!

1990's will NEVER be beat for music & meaning... we will never see its likes again

[freedom2think]

My and Shawn are first cousins. I was searching for family members on youtube and I did not realize when I was younger that she was so big back then. Amazing to learn about my history.

[saltwatercb]

So that means you're also cousins with Gavin then, right? I have his albums from the 80s. I wish he'd release more stuff.

[freedom2think]

Thats right, I haven't seen Gavin since I was like 9 years old, he lives in California recording still. I'm still in the Chicago area south. Shawn doesn't stay too far from me.  I need go visit her too, its been a long time..

[ItsRobsLife]

Beautiful house tune from back in the day.

I hope you'll let me link it with my Mad8 remix video, I really think it does justice to

her stunning vocals.

[dion8]
