I agree. If you're going to rework a song, it's best to choose one that wasn't a big hit.


I do wonder how many people actually remember it. It's 17 years old and didn't really set the charts alight at the time, but it was on Now 62 which probably helped its exposure.

I have to say it passed me by and I listened to a lot of the top 40 in the early-mid 2000's.

The original did pass by a lot of people which may help this version.

Whilst this isn't anything too special I am enjoying it wayyyy more than that mess that was 'Down Under'. It's #40 in today's update too. Wouldn't be against this one being a big hit when other average ones have done so.

Luude with this and Down Under has an interesting style of drum and bass with the choppy basslines - wonder if there is a technical term for this subgenre of drum and bass.

I would welcome this being a top 40 hit.

I have to say it passed me by and I was really into chart music around the early-mid 2000's.

I loved the song back in the day and still play it from time to time. I'm kinda getting into Luude's version too now, I'm here for it blowing up.

'Big City Life' music video !



Mattafix singer was Marlon Roudette. Roudette is the stepson of Neneh Cherry and paternal half-brother of Mabel.

I didn't know Marlon was the singer!

This should make it next week. Probably #42 behind 'Peru' in this weeks.

If this is all he's got in making the exact same drum and bass remix for random songs then I'm out.

I've got a feeling this will finally get added to R1's playlist this week.

I expect Big City Life to achieve a Top 20 peak.

I hope it goes further. Sadly 'Down Under' got so high that it's probably too unrealistic to match it's peak or get close to.
