I remember first hearing this song in 1995, on a bus from Surigao to Butuan. It wasn't quite a hit yet here in the Philippines and what I remember was falling in love with the song pronto! It subsequently hit #1 in My Personal Weekly Favorite Top 10 Songs around October of that year. Of course, soon as Christmas and the US elections and the Olympics came along, the song was ubiquitious - everyone was just dancing to it! It had that infectious beat which I guess everyone liked!
