Customer Reviews:
Excellent single to satiate the hungry fans.......2006-07-17
This gratifying non-album single from Chicane fits squarely between Chicane's two full-length albums - the seminal "Far From The Maddening Crowds (1997)" and the equally satisfying "Behind the Sun (2000)".
More than anything, this single was hinting at the direction Chicane was going with his music as vocals featured much more prominently in "BTS" than in "FFTMC".
British singer Mason lends her vocals to this single which features a Radio Edit for the required short play time on stations, but the crown jewel is Chicane's full-length version (track 2) which let's Chicane do what he does best... let your ears unwrap a song the way you like to unwrap a really special present from a loved one. Mason's voice lends a soulful, dusky hue that compliments the lush pads and moving basslines wrapped in a symphonic package that are a Chicane trademark. The song is deceptively simple in it's progression, relying increasingly on the grandiose pads and letting Mason get out in front with her soulful voice.
The Disco Citizens Remix is a much more progressive house sound which basically means it's much more club friendly, with less nuance and more stabby-synths to make it more danceable. But if you're the type to listen to music for listening sake, than the Original Version is the one for you.
This single was a nice treat from Chicane while fans awaited his follow-up to Maddening Crowds, and it still doesn't dissapoint.
Anything by chicane is GREAT!!!.......2002-08-26
I thought I had most of what Chicane has done, but I was in a bar and saw the video to "Strong in Love". Wow! His music has such a calming yet strong presence to it. Did you know he mixed two of Cher's new songs?!! I stumbled upon him by accident a couple years ago and I just can't say enough about his work. If you like him, this CD is worth getting, the vocals are fabulous, and the mixing is in his extraordinary styling.
