Melissa Etheridge on the dance floor

The latest victim in the 70s/80s music recycling madness happening in Europe
is Melissa Etheridge.

Once a again a dj remixed an old hit, made it dance floor friendly, and voila! An old hit ressurected.

The recipe is working pretty well, and we're not talking white vinyl bootlegs here, The Way I Do by "2-4 Grooves" reached number 1 in the German Club Charts, Get Ready's record label representative Sandra of Pulsive Media: "Melissa Etheridge herself is so happy with this rework that she has confirmed everything and is crossing her fingers for the nice guys...".

U.S. release on Tommy Boy beginning of 2007 will contain additional RMXs by Junior Vasquez

We've observed many rock classics getting the dance floor treatment in the last 18 months. Let's not forget what rock music was initially in the 50s, music to dance to. People love to dance and groove to rock, the latest hit by BodyRockers "I like the way" prooved that indeniably! Back in the 80s, Van Halen, Phil Collins and ZZTop (among others) had dance floor ready rock hits!
