The Source was a Chicago band that brought Candi Staton in to sing "You Got the Love" in 1996. That version is very R&B and hit the US R&B Hot 100 in 1986. The Source actually isn't involved in the versions of the song that became big European hits. British DJ John True Love took the beat of Jaime Principle's song "Your Love" and matched it with Candi Staton's accapella vocals to create the various versions of "You Got the Love" that hit the British Top Ten pop charts in 1991, 1987 and again in 2006 - the only song to ever hit the British Top Ten three times with the same singer. The song is now a European club anthem and Staton never does a concert in Europe without closing with the song which has sold over 3 million copies in its 20 year history. This is the original video that was created without Candi's involvement because she wasn't aware the song had been remixed until a BBC reporter called her to ask how it felt to have a Bristish Top Ten hit. Staton said, "I think you have the wrong number." The rest is history. hd
