We had "Gotta Get Thru This" going to the very top of the UK charts during the last weeks of 2001. It became one of the best selling singles of the year and has continued to do well into 2002 (returning to #1 after the holiday rush). Now it seems like it is America's turn to discover this gem. As noted by the reviews below, Mr. Bedingfiled's single is receiving a great amount of airplay from the top dance radio station, as well as some medium rotation on the part of Power 96 and Y-100 (the main stations in SFl). While "Gotta Get Through This" is not necessarily the type of music that is successful in the US (I cannot think of any Garage act scoring well in the past two years), this might be the song that opens the door to the two-step sound. The lyrics are contagious, the vocal delivery is just outstanding, and that beat has hit written all over it.
This particular version of the single has three remixes that deserved repeated play. While I still prefer the original version, the Dnd Full Version is what will probably get most of the dancefloor attention. If this one doesn't become a hit outside of Miami (and, of course, Europe) I will be quite shocked. This is one track that has pleasure guaranteed imprinted on its package; trust me on that one :)
