[GoldSeeker1012]

Oh how i remember those days! nobody give a fuck back then, or was because i was young?

[HashMagician]

Funny clip

People were more into havin fun back then

[saeedrashid]

Sweet I'm see them in Sept at Bestival. Can't wait.

[alien5ive]

f**king great. where all they have gone ?????????

[ednuttah]

Yes i'm so funny, you're the type of person that believes LTJ Bukem wrote Alantis.

[ednuttah]

So Altern 8 managed to get hold of an accapella of The Peech Boys " Don't make me wait " ( dosen't exist ) and sampled it on top of this?

[N4TH4NJ4Y]

you're so funny. Of course an accapella exists. I have it, and so did 100s of dance producers in th 90s.

[ednuttah]

Would you like to ask Chris Peat himself?

Maybe Mark will tell you that she sung it, not sampled simply sung by her.

[N4TH4NJ4Y]

would you like to watch?v=PcJ5yutn4S4 ? and skip to 4:47

[ednuttah]

Unfortunately that young lady there did NOT sing this piece for altern 8 it was a black woman called PP Arnold.

[N4TH4NJ4Y]

Unfortunatley PP Arnold did NOT sing this piece for altern 8, it was sampled from The Peech Boys "Don't Make Me Wait", sung by a man.

[cogolloenroscado]

name of acapella??

[phatbass66]

[MandysEvilTwin]

I agree, I was 6 at the time and it was a blast. Techno!Techno!Techno!

[N4TH4NJ4Y]

[jamieleng]

2 Unlimited yuk, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO There's no lyrics!

I remember the rumour that the inside of those masks where smeared with Vicks Vaporub to intensify the 'E' high.

[bigballs1967]

That is true. They smeared vicks inside their masks to stop breathing in exhurse frumes from the generator while they performing on the back of the truck outside a nightclub called shelly at stoke on trent. sorry about my spelling

[easygroove]

haha when iam telling people that "they" used to smear vicks or "vick vaporub" into their masks no one belive´s me...

[trampyfastrecordings]

never really liked any of the charty ones was tame and cheesy,possibly on purpose for the kids and to set a false sence of bbc fashion lets face it reality most ravers had long greasy hair or rasters,skin heads im a lumber jack shirts,pantera t-shirts or dossie possie jumpers jeans cut to shreds or shellsuit bottoms as nobody liked the tops was just marketing music fashion naff naff,but some of there albums was the bomb and belongs in the collection its a must.the poor know the score :D!

[jacko352]

oh the shame that i thought this was the bollocks at the time...and didn't we dance like twats..now just an ald bastered that tells kids that their musics shite!(whitch it is)..

[h4nr]

srsly man delete this one, it makes altern8 look sh1te

[koolzainski]

yeah, this is pathetic...

especially the dumb bitch trying to, pass as THE PEECH BOYS, lip-sync'ing:

"Come with me, tonight's the night, can't you see I wanna be with you!? I ain't gonna wait no more"....

Who would actually believe she's "singing"?

This is straight-up garbage!

Makes Altern-8, and techno as a whole, look stupid...

[jabos113]

WTF i'm scared for ever.this was cutting edge in it's time, then banging2untalented into it fucked it up..oman thats a shit post

[no1copey]

[N4TH4NJ4Y]

[nantocsem]

[bricology]

Who's the chick that's singing?

[koolzainski]

Some dumb token chick they threw in for "marketing" reasons... hey, sex sells...

samples are from:

THE PEECH BOYS- "Don't Make Me Wait"... produced by Larry Levan back in the early

1980's on NY's famed disco label "West End Records"...

[BreaksWax]

I have fucking wondered where that came from for 15 years mate! You DA MAN, made my night!!!

[lefroy1]

i love the peach boys. i love peaches too.

[Skank19]

TUNE! Ohhh the memories....or lack of them!

[plummyscum]

Normski was still a knob though. And he was shagging Janet Street Porter.

[hcfctom]

love this track. a good one to listen and dance to once you've had a few beers, or lines.

[seanpatterson85]

Top one, nice one, get sorted. Loved the flashback.

[Strider1978]

Oh the wonderfull days of baggy ripped jeans and underage drinking and raving. No drugs mind, just the music and the cheap alcohol.

One of those dj people look like Scorpian from MK. .I wonder if that was the inspiration ;)

[aldhous]

He he he, 2 Unlimited. You berk!

Respect for the first minute tho. :-0)

[barrygrant1970]

i cant believe you taped over the rest of this with 2 unlimited!! what were thinking!

[Alimach3burns]

This is just too funny! Where did this guy find this? Reminds me of my youth so much.

[nathanjayy]

[aliensatemybrain]

[innit27]

[Musakical]

yea, bring it on. Gonna see these guys mashin' up a field in Ireland on Saturday. lkjhfjklahdsf!!!!!!

[jkkaz]

proper old skool tunes!!!

[ajmarshal1]

Dance energy was genius, wasn't it on Sundays? Sure I remember watching it feeling crap after a Phobia / Obsession.

[Slatexeth]

haha! love the mix at the end! makes up for taping over it mate ;)

[avonuk]

the show wasnt dance neergy it was the word!!

[ConsultthisMusic]

yeah it was Dance Energy. Used to be on BBC2, part of the Def 2 slot. Monday nights I think and presented by Normski.

[XxTotalKaosxX]

Its a Hip Shaker !

[DoreExodus212327]

There is no way she sang that orginally. Probably some 20 stone american lady from Detroit who sang it.

Yellow dungaress are go.

[wascal23]

The vocal was actually a bloke originally ;)

sampled from The Peech Boys - Don't Make Me Wait

[robraver]

Fond memorys indeed...I love the old skool stuff.

[10000001chris]

What a track people made an effort back then

[DoreExodus212327]

im going to dig my yellow dungaress out. the dog had a pair back then too.

[arita2006]

the choice of singer seems to change by the country they are singing in - the TOTP clip elsewhere on youtube has some black bird chirping away...

[N4TH4NJ4Y]

arita: i think totp & dance energy are both from the UK...

[oele]

classic post!!

[Archaicconjurer]

man i remember watching this at a party in 1991, this youtube is just bringing back memories...Damn you for recording over it. . I only watched it live and can STILL remember it. . Its people like you that give music its grand name!!! Keep on trucking mon aime

[Ratpack81]
