'Hit in the UK and not in the U.S. Don't know why. A great song ! ? .. Easy, cause the Yanks know fuck all about good music, hahaha.. (only kidding guys)...

americans dont get to hear this music because their record companies are so controlling... this was huge in ozstralia

[RetroCool73]

Fantastic tune. A PM Dawn production/co-write if my memory serves me correctly

[Teddybaby75]

She only just made the top 20! Besides, with Craig McLachlan doing much better, the people buying records back then was obviously teen age girls and our parents! The guys and girls with taste were out off their heads on acid or Coke at raves or concerts. Also, honestly, the Yanks had FAR better music to choose from...!

@deejaychip To be fair, it was a turntable hit only in Oz, EMI failed to persuade the public here to part with their cash and buy the record. Shame, deserved to be a monster hit, as did a number of other acts on Cooltempo, which was a seriously good label.

Not sure if it ever made it big in the US but I do remember it.  A DJ friend of mine taped his set (back in the 90's) and this song was on it. I love it.

Lovely track !!!! "Down that down.... it's freedom at a price" !!! Uplifting song. Billiant vocals from Shara.....

[DjMikko74]

Great song!!! I say it again, There is nothing that can beat the 90´s music.=)

I really wish that Shara and Massive Attack would kiss and make up so that they can work together again. Shara is the best singer Massive Attack has ever worked with!
