THE SOURCE FEAT. CANDI STATON - YOU GOT THE LOVE

(Truelove, Stevens, Harris)

(1991/1997/2006)

(UK #3)

The defining moment in the club scene of 1990's Britain. A rare sample of a song from a documentary about obesity by Candi Staton became her signature tune after being bootlegged by dance outfit The Source. IT was the highlight of her Glastonbury set and it became the anthem that ended 'Sex and The City'. For me i had always known the song but it was whilst listening to the radio whilst showering one Sunday morning where it came on after a listener request that had me hooked. It has personal meanings for me as well and is one of those songs everyone knows and almost everyone loves. The the purest high, after a deafening low, it proves there is hope and does what all music should do, it touches the listener.
