About This Track

White Town is Jyoti Mishra, who sings and records dance music using synthesizers and samples. According to the Your Woman Songfacts, Mishra recorded this on an 8-track in his spare room in Derby and played it to his girlfriend, who encouraged him to do something with it. He could only afford to press 5 copies, and he sent one of them to the DJ Simon Mayo at Radio One, who started playing it. It became the most requested track of the week and as a consequence he landed a deal with EMI. It sold 165,000 copies the week it was released shooting to #1 despite his refusal to appear in a video or on British TV to promote it.

    I remember playing this song from a cassette, with other very cool hits of the 90's. It came back to me and I f*cking love it!

    I think I was only in the 4th grade when this was still in the charts. I actually only ever heard it ONCE in 1997. It was on TV one morning right before I left for school, and it was burned into my sub-conscious for years until, thanks to the internet, I was able to figure out what the song I'd heard years ago was. And then it turned out most of the album it came on was even better than this, its only single... Nice.

    Me gusta! Finally found it! Was sure I heard it in a rap song that "Hit 'em High" of Space Jam reminded me of!
