Originally released as a single in 1996, this is a favorite among many of her fans. Several new mixes have been released, making over the song yet again. There were already nearly several dozen mixes from the initial releases. The new package includes mixes by Kevin Saunderson, Timothy Allan and Deep Dish. Kevin Saunderson's electro-house mixes are mostly instrumental with just a few vocal samples on the remix. However, Timothy Allan's progressive tribal/electro mixes make use of the vocals on his mixes. Kristine's powerful vocals are beautifully showcased. Finally, there's the Deep Dish mix which is a longer, unreleased version of their already brilliant mix. Clocking in at over 13 minutes, the funky disco/house mix is absolutely stunning. This one is the obvious standout of the package, however, the Timothy Allan vocal mix is a stellar update.
