Solid Globe- Sahara = Overrated
I'm tired of people ranting and raving about this track, I personally feel this track is overrated....its good but not THAT good.
Anyone else feel the same way?
Nope, It actually is THAT good. And this is coming from a guy who got bored with trance for awhile and went to prog. Sahara brought me back.
what constitutes a song being overrated?
bored TAs posting nonstop about it?
I think it's a great song still-- just because a song is getting heavy rotation doesn't mean it's not so great...
It's a great song and deserves all the attention it gets (for now cause it's new).
As the rush comes on the other hand..... 
I think Kalahari is better, and I think North and South Pole are better than both Sahara and Kalahari.

it is my favorite tune of 2004 so far. if thats any indicator.
I don't think the original is overrated. But the Coldharbour remix will be I think.
^w3rd
i didn't find anything special about it either.
just like... "blah, that's it? the hyped sahara?"

I think Sahara is bloody awesome actually.
its not that bog standard trance I keep hearing a lot of, its very unique, those sounds are mental, and that guitar bit reminds me of Star Guitar by The Chemical Brothers, superb track! 
yeah but kalahari is good
It's about time somebody started this thread. I never really did like this song and just about every "trance" DJ is playing this song out. Markus Schulz just premiered his remix of it on the GDJB last night and I'm sure there's a bunch of new remixes in the work.
I'm sick of the original and that's not making the remixes any better.
i really dont see the greatness in this song... guess it just doesnt appeal to me
Never cared much for that track. 
It seems that songs that everybody knows about are always bad and overrated, and that the really good ones (note; With very good and very bad I mean the opinions generally expressed by others, and with that I mean that someone posts a thread about a song that is overrated, because there are hardly ever threads about songs that are underrated because it is so much easier to bash a track than it is to get or give credit for one) are the ones nobody ever hears about.
I wonder, if a track gets so much airtime (or whatever you want to call the 'attention' DJ's give to a track ie playing it in their sets) then either the DJ must like it a lot, or the crowd who he/she is playing for must like it. I don't see any other reason for playing a track, but IMO either reason is a justified one for playing the track.
And I know there will probably be some comments that 'mainstreamers' will like the track, or people who don't know a whole lot about trance will like it and it will get hyped (like ATRC did), but if thats the audience that likes it, so be it. What are you gonna do about it anyway?
Just my 2 cents.
You can say everything ^^^^you want^^^^ but for me that track is not that great.
You people...there's a little button in the bottom right corner of each post that says "quote".
sick ass tune, not that typical shit thats flooding the trance genre nowadays...
said it many times, this track was only ok to me until i heard it played out on a great system...its been kicking my ass ever since, i love it.
I think the tune is not bad.
