Popular Nostalgia

Released in 1997 by Sash -who is actually a German called Sascha and one of three people who form the band itself. One of my favourite nineties hits. This single marked an epoch in European dance music that has not really gone anywhere interesting since. The techno influence is great for big nights out and bonding with our fellow European discoteques! Top score for knowing the lyrics. A cheeky one from old Sash if you read the translation:

French

Mesdames, Messieurs, le disc-jockey Sash! est de retour.
Apres le succes imprevu du titre “It’s My Life”,
Il dit merci a tous les autre disc-jockey pour leur cooperation fantastique,
Un merci particulier a NBG, a Future Breeze et a Jean Paul,
Alors, a votre demande repete “Encore une fois”
Encore une fois.

(French readers please feel free to correct this paragraph and the one below by leaving comments).

English

Ladies and Gentlemen, DJ Sash! has returned.
After the unexpected success of the single “It’s My Life”,
Sash! says thank-you to all the other DJs for their fantastic co-operation
Thank you particularly to NBG, Future Breeze and Jean-Paul.
So, since you asked for it repeatidly, “One More Time”
One More Time

Maybe it’s more snappy in its native tongue. Re-live the transcendental overtones of nineties dance music One More Time.

I love the way that the video shows you what we twentieth century folk thought the future would be like. Very similar to the “Spaceman” Levis Advert.
