Name: Maxi Priest - Close To You (MJB:217 Remix) by MJB:217
Duration: 5 min 19 s
Description: This song never grows old to me. I love the beat, the vocal, the melody. Takes me back to the beginning of the 90s in a wonderfully nostalgic way. The vocal is a bit artifacted but I tried to clean it up as best as possible. Track is not being monetized.

For me, it's a toss up between "Back To Life" and "Joy" for which represent my favourite Soul II Soul song. I guess by mixing this one, I have my answer. I've always loved this vocal! Track is not being monetized.

I'd argue that Celine Dion isn't as known for her upbeat songs. Understandably so, given the majority of her single releases - particularly those that became popular - have been ballads. I've always been partial to her upbeat music - particularly 'Misled'. Track is not being monetized.

Maxwell has been one of my favourite singers since his debut album, 'Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite' was released in the 90s. His follow up, 'Embrya', yielded this gem. In its original form, it's airy, ethereal, and hauntingly beautiful. Naturally, I wanted to make it dancey. Track is not being monetized.

'Erotica' is a very underrated Madonna album. It's one of my favourites by her with this song being the one I've listened to the most. Vocal was a bit artifacted but I tried to clean it up as best I could. Track is not being monetized.

I've been in a Canadian mood lately. Candi (known as Candi & The Backbeat by their second album) didn't garner much success outside of Canada, save for 'Dancing Under a Latin Moon', despite having made some great pop music that would've done well beyond our borders. This song has always been my favourite. Track is not being monetized.

This is one of my favourite Lenny Kravitz songs. Lifted from his album '5', I turned this R&B leaning track into something dancey. Track is not being monetized.

In it's original form, this song is my favourite song of Cher's. I took a stab at making it more dancey. Track is not being monetized.

Malaika released only a few singles off of her sole album, 'Sugar Time', in the early 90s. But the few songs she did release still have meaning for me - over 30 years later. Nothing will compare to the album version of this track, so I didn't even try. Just aimed to make something I enjoyed. Track is not being monetized.

Jasmine Guy has been better remembered for her acting career. Back in the early 90s, she released one album to tepid success. However, I've been a fan of 'Another Like My Lover' since it was released. It's an upbeat R&B track in its original form. I thought I'd give it a disco/house vibe. Track is not being monetized.

Check the original out of this song - mid-tempo R&B. I've enjoy this song for years, the lyrics hinge on humorous (I had some fun with "fuck me just for fun"), and Monique Bingham's voice is always welcome. Track is not being monetized.
