Voodoo Child represents a new sound for Rogue Traders. Once a conventional dance orientated act, they now have an energetic and raw sound that is a mixture of electronic glam pop and punky guitar rock. 'Voodoo Child' is a sexy, raucous club anthem that re-works Elvis Costello's classic riff from his track 'Pump It Up' and features the tantalising husky rock vocals from Neighbours star Natalie Bassingthwaighte. A sure fire hit, it is set to be one of the anthems of the year.

 

 

Where do you this this will peak?

I'm REALLY hoping it does well as I've loved them for so long and have been waiting for this to be a big hit here :wub: Thank god R1 have picked it up as it can now become a huge hit...
I only heard it a few days ago and i love it. Best song for a while.
Top 3, plus their album is on a whole completely amazing - I've been a fan for quite a while now. Hopefully they'll do well here too aswell as in Aus! :cheer:

I'm not sure bout a top 3 but top 10 is a cert its f***ing brilliant!
Im thinking top 5 maybe top 10, Its a good song, Just dont think its got enough potenital to be number 1. But then again, I didnt think Gnarls Barkley would be number 1..

It's awesome and deserves #1

It's the second best UK release this year. Second only to Shakira's Hips Don't Lie.

I thought you hated songs that ripped off old songs?

I know the keyboard riff originally came from Elvis Costello's 1978 hit Pump It Up

But at least it's a remake of the riff and the rest of the song is so brilliant.

Sugababes single Freak Like Me was the same with the keyboard backing remade from the old Tubeway Army 1979 #1 single Are Friends Electric.

 

What I don't like is recent UK dance tracks being samples of the original looped with just the odd vocal mixed in.

This gives dance music a bad name although lots of R&B tracks are the same.

I know that a lot of European dance singles are old songs but they are mainly complete remakes.

Is Natalie Bassingthwaighte Izzy of Neighbours?

 

 

Yes she is :cheer:
