Sinead O Connor - Troy (The Phoenix From The Flame)

This could be my all time favourite Trance track, strange concidering it wasn't originally a dance track and I didn't really like the original

The original just simply called Troy was released in 1987 off her debut album The Lion And The Cobra, but never charted here. It would be her next single Mandinka that would make her a popular name (sometimes for all the wrong reasons)

So jump forward into 2002 and dance music is huge thanks to the DJ culture and Trance was still around from the end of the 90's. Someone had the great idea to have the track remixed and brought in German producer Push. He remixed the song to an amazing dance track, complete with echo on her voice and turned it into an awesome track. It got to number 48 on the charts but managed to top some of the club charts. It was released on a CD single and a remix 12'' single. I caught the track by accident one night channel surfing through the music channels. Check it out on Youtube and play loud!
