Jessy - Innocence '12

by **firstmusic** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 6:41 pm

Belgian dance singer Jessy has a new single! Together with DJ Regi from Milk Inc, she remade "Innocence" her biggest hit (with The Mackenzie Ft. Jessy) from back in 1998!

Jessy went to the studio to sing the lyrics again, a little updated with the "i can feel it, can you feel it" added, which she always does during the live performances of it. She sounds even more amazing on this one!

I was sceptical at first, because "Innocence" is her signature song, so why a remake? But i really like what they did to this one! It is also featuring the Belgian urban artist Abie Flinstone.

Like to know what you think! This is the chance for the European fans to hear the hit she became famous with in Belgium back in the 90's!

I don't think it's a bad update. At least it's not electro or a generic synth abuser.

The song is going hard and is ready to get into the iTunes top 10 in Belgium. Yesterday (friday) Jessy shot the video for it and they wanna release it by the end of next week! They wanna release it fast, and only one day after recording it, this is already a very small teaser:

The video is ready and i'm so addicted to this new version! Really like what they did and love Abie's rap!

Jessy has a great voice and looks awesome!

Oh come on! I check daily for your opinions and nobody??? Hmmm ...

It's good but it's not too different from the original, which was a brilliant track to begin with - so I don't think an update was necessary other than to let a new generation hear this classic.

In my opinion the added raps are completely unnecessary and even bring the song down... Like something you just have to sit through (or fast-forward) to get to the good part.

Jessy's voice still rules though!

This is an ok update, not as good as the original though. I still jam to "Regardez-moi" and "How Long" :lol:
