Blackstreet & Mya - Take Me There

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Does anyone recall which mix of "Take Me There" by Blackstreet & Mya received the most airplay on CHR?  In my local market, I seem to recall only hearing the "Want U Back Mix" which replayed the tune of "I Want You Back" by Jackson 5.

	Hmm, there must have been more than one promo CD, because another one exists that has the original mixes (no "Want U Back Mix"). The original mix sounds even more like a kids song.

Instrumental 5:01 The 'Want U Back Mixes' are on a another promo. The version they started spinning first was the radio version, it's a shortened version of the 12" Album Version. Edited by prisdeej

	Both Promo Only and RPM Top Hits have the "Want U Back Mix", but the running time on both are 3:42. Is that actually the 3:57 track, faded 15 seconds early?

	It's a long quiet fade and when zoomed in there's audio, but very quiet.

	Ed as far as I know the parent album for "Take Me There" is the soundtrack to "The Rugrats Movie" so I do not know where the (5:01) version you have on a dj cd single comes from.

	I have what's called the "Big Yams Remix" of Blackstreet & Mya featuring Mase & Blinky Blink's "Take Me There" on my Promo Only Mainstream Radio DJ CD subscription series and it runs 3:54. It samples the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back", contains the rap verses by Mase, and features a "frog-like" voice uttering random mono-syllabic words like "yeah", "uh", and "right" throughout the song (Is this the voice of Blinky Blink?) Does anyone know if this aforementioned remix on my Promo Only disc is the same as the "Want You Back Mix" on the promo CD single, but faded :03 early? Also, does the 4:01 Radio Version of "Take Me There" feature the "I Want You Back" sample or is it a completely different mix altogether?
