BeatFreakz
Somebody's Watching Me

Data

WE SAY

The '80s remix revolution continues with yet another winner for Data. BeatFreakz, with a little help from Hi_Tack, completely nail this reworking of the Rockwell hit. It was playlisted early by Kiss 100 and Galaxy, but Radio 1 had it seven weeks ahead of release. MoS are about to withdraw an entire compilation album from iTunes, which features a club mix of this song, after just three days online, for fear that the download numbers would affect this radio edits release. The song comes complete with this genius video, making this an irresistible and inescapable package. JF
