Rating:
Release Date: 2000-08-08

Tracks: 1: Uncle John from Jamaica [Hitradio Mix] 2: Uncle John from Jamaica [XXL Version] 3: Uncle John from Jamaica [Karaoke Version] 4: Uncle John from Jamaica [M.I.K.E. RMX] 5: Uncle John from Jamaica [Lock 'N Load RMX]

M.I.K.E. Remix is excellent
With every release, they've managed to spirial downwards - the quality is severely diminishing from songs like "Up & Down", "We Like To Party", "Better World" and "Overwhelm Yourself". Vengaboys are back with a 3rd single from their nagging Platinum Album.

You're probably wondering why I gave this 4 stars. . . this is strictly because of the "M. I. K. E. Remix". M. I. K. E. is the guy behind Push that brought the trance world "Universal Nation" and more recently "Till We Meet Again". This remix alone deserves 5 stars, but the original has brought it down to 4.

This mix starts off similar to the Sanctuary mix of Delerium's "Silence", and progresses somewhat into a progressive trance tune. The only thing that remains from the original is the vocals "I can't take it no more. . " which is actually a nice touch. A great remix for a bad tune. The other remix is provided by Lock 'N Load - though I haven't heard it and thus won't judge it.


HEY! HEY! HEY! VENGABOYS 3RD SINGLE RELEASED!
THIS HOT 6-TRACK IMPORT CD-SINGLE ISJAM-PACKED OF COOL REMIXES! THE ALL-TIME FAVORITE TRACK IS #5 THE LOCK-N-LOAD REMIX! IT WAKES YOU RIGHT UP AND MAKES YOU WANT TO JUMP AROUND! A DEFINATE CLUB TOPPER! IF YOU LIKE THIS CD-SINGLE, ALSO CHECK OUT LOCK-N-LOAD'S "BLOW YA MIND" CD-SINGLE (edit). "UNCLE JOHN FROM JAMAICA" IS THE THIRD RELEASE OFF"THE PLATINUM ALBUM".


Vengaboys new single not so great
The Vengaboys new single "Uncle John from Jamacia" isnt so great. The 1st two singles from the Platinum album were the best but the content of this song is so stupid but it does KINDA have a good beat. . . . Vengaboys can do a better job than this can't they?

Thanx, Ryan.
