SNAP! - The Power

In 1989, German music group Snap! (at the time known as World Party) released their third single - The Power. The song was created out of several uncleared samples. The beats were taken from King Of Beats Lesson #1 by Mantronix, and the vocals were sampled from Let The Words Flow by rapper Chill Rob-G and from Love's Gonna Get You from Jocelyn Brown. After the song had become an instant hit in Europe and America, Arista Records began working to clear the samples to enable a US release. After the samples were cleared the decision was made to re-record the track. The US single was released with the rap recorded by Turbo B, and the vocals recorded by Penny Ford. Throughout 1990, Joeclyn Brown's "I Got The Power" hook was prominently played on radio and in clubs. The same year her Love's Gonna Get You vocals were also sampled on another major club hit - Bizarre Inc's I'm Gonna Get You sampled the line "why waste your time, you know your gonna be mine."
