"I promise you" this track is amazing!!!

Absolutely loving this track and a big shout out to Phil who sent it to me.
Big on the US clubbing scene back in the days, so I'm informed.
It was a track which was new to me, but one I'm absolutely hooked on.
It was originally released in 1987, but this remix takes it to another level.
It's got absolutely everything; superb vocals, great lyrics, some great subtle snippets of piano and just a delicious groove.
Massive in every sense.
Just checks these lyrics, fantastic for a sing along;
"I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while I'll make you fall for me
I promise you, I promise you I will"
Bloody lovely!!!

I'm pretty sure this was done before Warren Rigg came on board with Tony Moran. It was remixed later (2004) by Warren and released as a single. This track was a white label floating passed around by DJs in '99 or so. The 2004 Warren Rigg Tony Moran extended mix lost a bit of the energy and beauty of the vocal in favor of bigger drum track. These are Tony's vocals which are so spot on you couldn't imagine it ever being performed by anyone else. Glad you enjoyed it. Phil (DJ Bumper)

Here is the 2004 mix (harder and loses some of the beauty, but Mr Moran's vocal still shines through)
