Alison Limerick - Where Love Lives (Come On In)

[Mike(y) W]

Surprised there's no poll about this one, but maybe it's a completely ridiculous question to ask because some tracks just effortlessly achieve legendary classic status despite not being HUGE chart hits on their initial release.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Like it, don't love it. I think appreciation is where I land with it.

Her voice is divine. For me I always felt this song was rammed down my throat as being a classic without just letting it settle into its own legacy. I think she has better songs, but the deep down vocal/piano combo is undeniable. Are you with me?

 

[straightorbroken]

Just to clarify the SorB scale: 7.5 and above is an A.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I mean I can't argue with the piano rift

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Naturally I prefer the Knuckles and Morales mix

I know (and like) the harder edged 1996 re-release, which is below, better. It was remixed by Dancing Divaz and this version gave her a UK Top 10. Also loved their remix of Make It On My Own for her which was also a hit.

Exactly this

 

[Sheena]

And let’s face it, she’s no ALYSSON WILLIAMS

 

[VV]

I adore it. The original and the '96 remix!

Make it on my own is a classic too.

"Crime To Be That Cool" should have been a single.

 

[funky]

A classic among classics. One of the most singular and seminal club songs ever. When that piano hook kicks in it's enough to melt an entire dancefloor.

 

[SystemAddict]

I was always surprised that K.Llo never tackled this one but the OH EIGHT version with Buzz Junkies is just the ticket.

 

[straightorbroken]

Alison will be the musical guest on the next Graham Norton show.

@BoysForSeles I know you're a fan.

 

[FetchFugly]

I recall she was very good value on the SAW podcast so pleased she is having this moment.

 

[BoysForSeles]

I may have mentioned it before but ‘Put Your Faith In Me’ was tentatively planned as my wedding song before that didn’t happen….

Nice to see her getting a boost in media coverage, did the ad translate into any actual new chart success? I kept seeing it on potential Xmas number one lists but was probably done in by not being on playlists.

 

[straightorbroken]

I love that song.

Here's one I adore. It surely must have been uploaded to her MySpace if memory serves. It was on my ASFM potentials for so long until the youtube channel I had got taken down for copyright.



(Also not on Spotify sadly).

 

[Shirley]

COME ON IN COME ON IN
COME RIGHT ON IN

I won't BORE ON about the SAUNA MIX being the ONLY WAY TO GO because HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I DONE THAT BY NOW

 

[Halli]

sublime

 

[PGCMc]

I gave it a 9 for the Dancing Divaz mix. Love the Dancing Divaz remix of Make It On My Own which flopped. Bought the follow up single to that & wasn't impressed.

 

[straightorbroken]

Jesus. Alison. You marvel. Loved that!

 

[Agneeta]

Loving the MK remix, a proper hark back to what made him famous in the first place.

 

[hyperwoof]

My favourite mix of this I don’t know where its from but its a shitty digital copy and I’ve looked but can’t locate it elsewhere. It just goes off, it isn’t at the party or ‘of’ the party - it IS a party.
