Its unbelivable that you can put so weird vocals into a song and still make it work, he did that in a lot of his songs making them a bit mystic.

Its close between this one and Yo Yo but i think Yo Yo is my favourite. So underated producer.

Will always be famous for Tiesto using it as the opener for the Magik CD - great choice!
Interesting knowing your background I would of thought you would associate it with Oaky's 99 Essential Mix. I loved Tiesto at the time when he put this on Magik 7 but I always thought it was odd to put a 2 year old tune as an opener on his CD. He then closed it with another old Oakey tune The Phophet. Old choices for the bggest DJ in the world.... but great tunes nevertheless

This song resembles the Tiësto's Revolution mix he made which was released just before Magik 7 and contained a very similar tracklist but an additional CD. Lovely record indeed!

Oakey was playing this in 1998. Tiesto copied a lot of what Oakenfold and other top DJs at the time played, sometimes years after they first played it.

Lovely track. Wouldn't say it's unique because I'm sure I've heard tracks that are similar, but anyways it's just amazing.

Think my favorite version is the original, the way the atmosphere builds after the breakdown is just perfection!
The Original Mix is just *chef's kiss*

Edit: Fuck, now I want to listen to Magik 7 again
