Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Theme from S-Express. By Songfacts®.

This song took the bass and brass sections from Rose Royce's 1979 hit "Is It Love You're After" and "Rose Royce Express" and mixed it with the brass stabs from Crystal Grass' 1975 funk anthem, "Crystal World." It also samples controversial performance artist Karen Finley's "Tales of Taboo." Another unusual sample - a hairspray aerosol can was used for the hi-hat sound.

The diminutive singer Michelle, who had a hit single with "No More Lies," was brought in to provide the vocals. Chilo Harlo provided the "Enjoy this trip, enjoy this trip and it is a trip" intro.

Apart from the samples, this song cost just £250 to make.
