SATURDAY NIGHT JUKEBOX! - Reflekt ft Delline Bass - 'Need To Feel Loved'




Reflekt ft. Delline Bass - 'Need To Feel Love' (2004)

I'm a real sucker for the strings and you don't often find them in a dance club hit. This song gripped me for a solid week. As soon as I heard it on a mixed compilation made for me by Fly (once again thanks), it sent a shiver down my spine and goosebumps everywhere! I had it on repeat in the car constantly that week when driving to and from work. I can't explain what it was, whether it was the sample from theme song "Ghosts" used in the film 'The Road To Perdition' or the way the vocals from Delline Bass build through the track. At first she sounds soft and sultry until midway when the song reaches it's peak, she sounds strong and fierce!
You will love me or else
I'd never heard this song before, despite it reaching number 1 in the British Dance Chart after it's release. I remember when I was driving I could actually pin point the part of the song that really got me. It was about 4:16 into it where the beat kicks back in with the strings. I told so many people about 'my new favourite song' which they were guaranteed to love. It went down like a damp squib with my work colleagues who listened to Kiss FM all day long, and it was totally wasted on London Scouser and Old Pa during a gorgeous summer evening during a BBQ as they chatted all the way through it! For me it can only be the 12" version so this Saturday Night Jukebox is about complete indulgence. It may have a dance beat to it but feel free to play it well into the wee small hours of Sunday morning!

Well I listend all the way throught with my full undivided attention. Yes it is good of 'the type' I admit, but that is as far as I would go. I am sure it would be great at at club or somthing 'after a few?' Listen the secret is don't be too enthusiastic about a track ask the listener what do they think...let them think they have discovered it....now you know all my secrets!!!

Thanks for giving it a go. I agree it's not everyone's cup of tea, it's not even my usual choice! I think it was right places, right time, right mood. A sort of musical 'zone'! As for your secret, it's taken you a lifetime to work that one out!

I adore this song, it's all about the strings! Great feel to it, perfect accompaniment to a burger and sausage.
