This remix I got to hear for the first time on her Superbad 2001 album (Japanese release - Rossiter Road – CTCR-13144, Brown Sugar Records – CTCR-13144). i believe she recorded the song earlier on the cusp of the new millennium with this version reworked by Artful Dodger probably in 1998. Romina Johnson is the daughter of Wesley Johnson, an American musician and Italian mother. She is an R&B/Soul singer who now lives in the UK. Many labels are bandied about such as Garage House, Garage, etc., but I would say this version still meets the Soul music criteria an an up tempo dancer. The main Youtube link is to the preferred Artful Dodger remix but I've also included links to the BBC where you can hear the original (?) version. The video is great and shows her as quite a dynamic performer. What were once big hits get forget and just because they were doesn't mean they should be forgotten.
