Dammn!!! Im glad you found it 😎!!! I know exactly how it it when you search for a song for that long and then you find it!!!! Im so glad for you haha!!!
Corperation of One The Real Life 1989 is the original version and in my humble opinion if it ain't broken don't try to fix it🙂 ruclips.net/video/XX0H2qPhe3E/видео.html
Waited for about 6 years. Knew the tune in my head, and even had the word "Maze" affiliated, but yesterday in the car, it played for a few seconds on BBC Radio 1, and the presenter casually said "Raven Maize, the Real Life". Extremely unlikely saviour in Radio 1, they usually just play newer stuff!
Superb house music remake of the 1989 track The Real Life by Corporation Of One, containing samples from Theme For Great Cities by Simple Minds and Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. Outstanding.
I heard this track the first time i was at a morning club in 2001 in the south of Spain when i was 15 yo . Many years trying to know its name. Still it is one of my favorite ones. 🤩
Top tune tune found it now I knew it was called is this the real life with vocals from Freddie mercury from queen a top timeless late 1980s banger!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Regardless of what anyone can say I think This is Excellent Stuff indeed. To use Themes from great cities (simple Minds) and use Freddie Mercury's vocals and speed it up to make such a hit and reminds us all where it came from is BRILLIANT !!! I still love this today and always will. I just wish I had done this and made the money from IT!!!! IS THIS IS THIS IS THIS THE REAL LIFE !!!!!!!
wow this song brings back some much memories ..... of my university days in london and clubbing @ the ministry of sound saturdays 2k1 was a yr to remember
Never knew until i looked it up a few mins ago how this was Joey Negro that made this song, and Joey Negro was also Jakatta... Dave Lee (AKA Joey Negro/Jakatta/Raven Maize) is one hell of a talanted bloke!!!
I was 20 something . THE ERA !!! Paris, Le Queen sur Les Champs. Les afters du 287 avec Wario , les afters rue des petites Ecuries. L'enfer a Montparnasse, C etait MAGIQUE putain . Quelle epoque bordel.
this is from totp mate its a shame nothing like this is in the charts anymore full of this nonsense with ppl doin the shuffle dance etc ruclips.net/video/ywS2hVcV_0w/видео.html
timo maas at planet love, when i heard this song for the first time it was such a ride i couldnt realise if this really was a real life! :D I kinda miss those years...
yeah this is nearly totally Simple Minds hardly repackaged either from their Sons & Fascination/Sister Feeling Calls album, best album before they went downhill, check out the American, Love Song, Sweat in Bullet and others from it
ripped from the synth version : Theme from great citys by the simple minds! thats the whole version is about. ( and queen ) listen and you will hear ! that version was great in the 80,s!!
21 years I've been searching for this song. Omg I'm literally CRYING. Wow ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is a brilliant song. Great combination of Simple Minds, Queen and some house music rhythm. So clever and powerful, LOVE IT.

I still love this today and always will. I just wish I had done this and made the money from IT!!!! IS THIS IS THIS IS THIS THE REAL LIFE !!!!!!!
however they are not the people that did it. the original is corporation of one - the real life back in 1988.
I totally forgotten about this song. Until today(7-10-2018). Am I glad to stumble on this gem again !
All this time never realised this was Freddie mercury sample who knew lol
wow this song brings back some much memories ..... of my university days in london and clubbing @ the ministry of sound saturdays 2k1 was a yr to remember
Can I just put this 2023 appreciation here... Holy shit man. What a sick and original remix or the actual original
Love the dance sequence in this track. Love the track as well.
это просто супер! воспоминания пипец!!!!!!! Автору респект!
Brings back memories, always good!!
Why has this song been so hard to find, this mesmerised me when I furst started going out
Never knew until i looked it up a few mins ago how this was Joey Negro that made this song, and Joey Negro was also Jakatta... Dave Lee (AKA Joey Negro/Jakatta/Raven Maize) is one hell of a talanted bloke!!!
I have luv this song for years and years
Simple Minds' Theme For Great Cities is where the synth sound originated from back in 1981!
Well spotted! 😉
Synth sound came from Sheffield early 80s!
👍
And the original is a million times better than any of the covers! Though the Corporation of One version is particularly good!
@@tuitionmatters8349 Yes, the original had better base and the extra 'chorus' bit that took it to another level.
Takes me back to Saturday nights clubbing in Doncaster 2001 with the lads great memories and so glad i found this tune again it's took me ages to find
Sampled from "Theme from the great Cities" by Simple Mind's
Thank you FB memories
I love it !!!! c'est ma jeunesse !!
one of the best samples ever used simple minds theme for great cities,class tune
Круто!!!! Москва гудела в начале 2000-х под этот трэк
I actually bought the single of this on cd when it came out
Love It! Radio 1 are have this on their Ibiza playlist this week!!!!
Luv,luv,luv this........fantastic!!!! X
That synth realy is outworldish beyond comprehension.
YES
I prefer this to the Corporation of One version. Reminds me of a very memorable holiday in Spain..
In the early 2000`s the video clips were wild! :D Remember?
RAVEN MAIZE aka JOEY NEGRO (Dave Lee)
aka Jakatta aka Sessomatto aka Doug Willis aka Akabu aka Z Factor and many more...
in groups The Sunburst Band
Fuhhh.... Had no idea. The Sunburst Band and Joey Negro (Masters at Work/Nuyorican Soul) all that stuff.
aka a fooking legend.
I just basicly found out everything I listen to is the same person...
Heard this on the radio yesterday first time in many years I had to go search it today to listen again I was about 15 when it came out
This takes me back. Didn't know it was a sample from a Simple Minds track. Proper banging tune back in the day.
Still is a banger
rpants1975 is it not from freddy Mecurey,s tracks ?
Lyrically, it samples half of the opening line of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' by Queen.

Oh man. This song and video + weed = tripping the fuck out.
I love it.
Not anywhere as good as the Original tune By Corporation of One 1989 Now that was the Real Life really underground not mainstream long live HOUSE
Corporation of One came out with this in 89/90 Now thats the Real Life true underground urban house Not mainstream like this thats why I diss!like it
Not many people would have the guts to sample Queen....but somehow he makes it work...
Sampling Simple Minds on the same song too
Simple Minds samples from 1981 album!!!
Gr8 post!!!
Es ist zu wunderbar!
Banger!
Finally I found it!!!!
classic.
Epic!
Knew the drums sounded familiar to Jakatta - American Dream, it's the same guy behind both hits, Dave Lee.
I did not know that!
