I love this song, first heard it on a ministry of sound compilation, then heard the Dumonde (??) remix in a recorded set. Unfortunately I've never heard it played in a big club... What other songs sound like this? I love the melody, but the whole way the track is put together I like very much. Of course I'd never put more than one song like this in an entire set, it's pretty much a one time deal. Ideas?

Fell in love with this one like 5 years ago and then the trance quest begun. Not quite what I would listen to today though.

I remember when this was brand new and Darren Tate wouldn't license the original mix to be used on compilations. It's still a unique track and you don't really get instrumental trance this poppy and overtly melodic anymore. I'm sure a lot of people sneer at it, but I think it's a great track. I really like the bridge and the piano chords supporting the lead in the second half. It may have been populist but it was really well written. I can't really think of any others like it, although that lead synth cropped up in a lot of bubble gum European hard trance for a couple of years afterwards.

damn.. well yeah i agree it obviously has the flavor of cheese written into it but it's a GOOD track. in fact it is the perfect example of how glad i am that electronic music includes the cheese sounds that it does. becuase they aren't all good, but not all the dark or tribal sounds are that badass anyway. i think if you look at what the big dj's play (except for "anthem" omg) and what the majority of people (read: mainstream edm folks) like its obvious that some cheese is gladly accepted. plus its wickedly cool when you're massively f*cked up!

one of the best tracks of all time, imo along with The Wilderness.

LOVE Tate's older stuff like this.

Not my style anymore, but I still totally agree with you, man.

On the money. This track has been, and always will be ,for me, the most over rated anthem. I could never wrap my head around why so many people liked it, absolutely confuzzling...

Can't say I enjoy it much now but at the time, I loved it. Hearing it dropped peak time at Passion (when Passion was at its peak) is something I'll always remember
