....THIS DAMN SONG!! I'm feeling nostalgic so, it's gonna be LOONNNGG... (cont.) Back in Spring 1995 (when this remix came out), Frankie was doing Sound Factory Bar with David Morales (their first joint gig together), and I went to see him, even though I knew it was gonna be a MADHOUSE, because he was hitting his peak as a remixer / producer then, doing Michael Jackson, Karyn White (with the criminally underrated mix of 'Hungah'), Joi Cardwell, etc... EVERYONE was there... He was doing overseas gigs, and he flew back from Japan to do SFB; his limo at the time broke down, and he was sent an emergency limo to EXCLUSIVELY take him to SFB, because he was REAL late! I was waiting in line to get in at SFB that night, when a white limo pulls up, and I KNEW that had to be Frankie, so I went up to it (with my CD singles / CD's of Frankie's remixes), for his autographs... He told me he was FRAZZLED, because of the late start (AND he was by Himself), so he said he would sign EVERYTHING if I would help him bring his records into SFB (which almost got LOST at customs!!), into the Club! OF COURSE, I jumped up, and helped with his six MILKCRATES (...a REAL DJ!), got into the Club FOR FREE, and he signed ALL my CD's, Lisa Stansfield's 'Change', 'Welcome To The Real...', 'It's Hard Sometime', Karyn's 'Hungah', and, many others, but 'THIS TIME' (Chante's), is the closest to my Heart, and I will NEVER FORGET that moment.....which I almost DID!! P.S., he also told me (at that time) his current favorite mix was "I Want U (M&M Mix)" from Rosie Gaines, which he PLAYED for me, at Sound Factory Bar!! THANK YOU FRANKIE, for EVERYTHING!! (RIP)
I seen him he was on it love in the whole place 1989 pet shop boys party I was fucking out of my head good night with a lot of mate that are gone always thinking about you will you was my best friend thanks mate😃
I first heard Frankie play this years after it's release and I thought it was new. I started singing it at record stores until a DJ finally told me what it was. Meanwhile, FK was playing it regularly again, late during his sets. I eventually tracked the record down and later was able to download a decent mp3. It's time to start playing it again. FK is still the greatest in my book.
Was at the Sound Factory Bar with Kevin Aviance the first time I heard this and what was even more magical was to see Kevin break out and dance David Morales (I think). So beautiful!!
what a fooking tune this is legendary Frankie cant go wrong with Knuckles he was an absolute genius for sure will never be another like him i got the opportunity to meet him once in person was the most down to earth dude youll ever meet was very warm and approachable a kind soul for sure he loved his trade and you could feel his love in every mix he did
Are you lucky enough to have this CD single? Settle for this, Frankie would have given every one listening to this everything you asked for. That's how he gave. This is one among many reasons he is missed and will never be forgotten. A pioneer of beautiful sounds. I miss serving his meals and talking about whatever at the hotel he rested whenever he came home. I miss making him double espresso's. Nuff said. A kid from NY just like me. That's how I will remember him.
Hello all, I know we've said this before but this is just to thank Koga for posting a truly classic bit of House history. Frankie is with us all still and won't be going away very soon. Engineers like me love this stuff and it drives us to deliver solutions for good. I can't run away from a problem. Like "Tmonty" said, this is an emotional thing. Im a dad of two and this is for everyone, not selfish. Big love to all from our crew in Wimbledon. Have a cracking weekend.
A lovely mix by the Master, we are truly going to miss your genius you have gifted me the awareness and deep appreation, of house music and it's spiritual connection while blending, mixing the sounds over cultural and ethnicities. A true American art for original
Thanks to everyone to share thoughts about the genius and friend who passed away four years ago. Frankie lives on with us all & makes my family dance and smile, like many of us here. Chante Moore, Sounds of Blackness, drop a bit of Ten City or Mantronix . Happy Bank Holiday y'all. Take care
When she breaks into the chorus, the song just soars with Terry Burrus on that classic piano backing. I would love for her to perform this live on tv as a tribute to Frankie Knuckles along with Sounds of Blackness performing "The Pressure" remix. I think this would be a fitting tribute to him.
I Have A Lot Of Her Music... I Remember Going To Doc's & A Brother Was Spinning This Cut. I Asked Him, Who Sings This Cut & He Said Chante Moore .. I Have Her Cd's & He Showed Me The Vinyl. You See, THIS TIME .. is a R&B Song On Her CD... That Week I Went To Record City In Paterson & Bought It.
I have been in love with Chante Moore's voice for years. I have known about her for more than twenty years. She is beyond talented, and I think if I ever watched her in concert, I would need to be sedated! HA!!
Oh yes, another EPIC Frankie Knuckles production. I would put this one right along side his own Rain Falls (David's Soakin Wet Mix) for sheer epic-ness ;)
questo pezzo è forse uno dei più belli che la mente di Mr. Knuckles abbia mai creato !! lo amo... grazie knuckles che ci fai provare tante amozioni. Alex Med ;)
This BOMB MIX Exploded in my Soul and Touched me the way the only HOUSE MUSIC can! I CAN'T STOP playing THIS! I wish that I know how to convert this to play on my mobile device with my headphones!
This time (this time), I am gonna give you all the lovin' you need (this time), this time, set your heart free, set your love free (this time). How can I be at ease when I know soon I'll lay my eyes on you, I close my eyes imagining the moment that my dreams are gonna come true. The way you wear your hair, the shyness underneath your smile, the warmth of your embrace is gonna thrill me in just a little while. I rushed right in before but right now I'm gonna take my time, every moment we share I'm gonna savor like a vintage wine. And when you kiss me (I'm gonna taste my lips) I won't let go, and when you hold my hand, baby I won't say no 'cause... Ooh baby I want ya, I can't live without ya no way, I ain't never gonna love this way again, no time to pretend, no, no, this time, I'm so glad I've got another chance, mmm, to love you again, Oh this time. I can feel you closer to me, closer as the moment comes, I thank God for another chance to love that very special one. (Thank you.) Will he return my love I've held on for so many years, I close my eyes to cry, then I heard you whisper in my ear... Ooh baby I want ya (oh I want you), I can't live without ya no way (no way), I ain't never gonna love this way again (no, no), no time to pretend, no, no, this time (this time), I'm so glad I've got another chance, mmm, to love you again, and again, and again, and again. Ooh this time, I'm gonna give you all the love I me, set your heart free, ooh this time it's gonna be forever (forever). This time, I'm gonna give you all the love you need (all the love you need), set your love free (set your love free, set your heart free), ooh this time it's gonna be forever. Happiness I can't explain, inside I have you just for mine, I'm kissin' your lips, you're lovin' me, this phrase keeps runnin' through my mind... Ooh baby I want ya (oh baby I want ya), I can't live without ya no way (no way), I ain't never gonna love this way again (never gonna love this way again), no time to pretend, no, no, this time (this time), I'm so glad I've got another chance (got another chance), mmm, to love you again, and again, and again, and again. Ooh this time, I'm gonna give you all the love I me (all the love in me), set your heart free, baby (set your heart free, set your love free), oooh, this time. This time, this time, I'm gonna give you all the love you need (all the love you need), set your love free (set your love free, set your heart free), this time, oh this time, oh this time it's gonna be forever. Ooh baby I want ya, I can't live without you no way, I ain't never gonna love this way again, no time to pretend, no, no, this time, I'm so glad I've got another chance, mmm, to love you again, Oh this time.
