3. Nightcrawlers x John Reid feat. Big Narstie – Push The Feeling On

4. AJ Tracey feat. MoStack – Dinner Guest

6. Pitbull feat. Nicole Scherzinger – Hotel Room Service

7. French Montana feat. City Girls – Wiggle It

Obviously nothing will ever top the original but I really like the Pitbull one, a much more creative way of using the sample than the rest of these (aside from Dinner Guest which is also creative, but is just a boring song).

'Dinner Guest' is the only one that comes close to the original for me

The original obviously. 'Friday' is very cheesy as you'd expect, but it's not that bad. I did like the Bump 'N' Grind mashup too.

the “original” (MK version) by a long way, one of the very best house songs ever made.

 

my fave of the covers was the R Kelly mashup before it came out just how trash of a person he is. that aside Dinner Guest used the sample well but I never really loved the song.

Would the person who voted for 'Friday' like to out themselves :P

 

Obviously the original is still the best but I do actually like most of the songs on here that I've heard.

'Hotel Room Service' is a bit of a guilty pleasure, but the original is simply untouchable.

Obvious I would choose the original, iconic and ahead of its time too with the chopped vocals, but because it is so far ahead in this poll with 12 votes, I voted for the Big Narstie version which is my second favourite.

 

I never knew Bump and Grind 2014 sampled Push the Feeling On.
