REISSUE: “Gotta Be Love” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Tiffany
Tiffany is singer joining the pop-dance era of the 80s. Her popularity was started on a pop-dance cover of “I Think We’re Alone Now" – a hit from Tommy James and The Shondells from 1967. Her music included an array of teen love ballads and some playful dance numbers to follow up on her claim to fame. “Gotta Be Love” is a single which was featured on a 12” of her 1988 single “I Saw Him Standing There” – it was featured on this single exclusively. The high energy feel is much like an Italo-disco production with lots of gadgetry and an out in the front singer taking a ride on it. It was a big peak hour mover for the NRG playlists and I still find Tiffany’s performance loving sweet.
I have taken the 12” version of “Gotta Be Love” and reworked a ReStructure Mix to pay tribute to those 80s producers, artists and dancers who kept dance music history moving both on the floor and in pop culture, More percussion and an extended arrangement are also in this one.
