Even though this song was released back in 2014 and never charted higher than #3 in Canada, it always gets the crowd going crazy on the dance floor! It has a sparse yet funky groove that gets people to pay attention during the verses before the rock and roll chorus kicks in. I&#8217;m calling it the <em>Lady Marmalade<\/em> of the millennial generation!&#8221;<\/p> <p><em>&#8211; RJ, <a class=\"listing-mentionable listing-mentionable-enabled\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eventsource.ca\/stereoflavour-entertainment\" target=\"_self\" data-listing=\"5342\" rel=\"noopener\">StereoFlavour Entertainment<\/a><\/em><\/p> <hr \/> <h2>&#8220;I Want You&#8221; &#8211; Savage Garden<\/h2> <p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_EOWfvX2czw\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">?<\/span><\/iframe><\/p> <p>&#8220;This one gets all the &#8217;90s kids into a frenzy!

It features fun, happy African rhythms, trumpeting synth-horns and a fairly complex story about a bodyguard named Betty helping Simon escape everyday life. Singing these clever words is always a blast and the dancing it invokes is nothing short of inspirational (much like the living-room conga-lines this song has inspired since the late 80s).<\/p> <p>Sidenote: Be sure to watch the video featuring Simon and Chevy Chase sitting in a small pink room together.
