The 1990 version contained a chant of "[[Michael B.]] in the house", which was later reused on [[Daddy Pop]]; this isn't considered to be a sample or reference to this track, however.

It was tried out extensively during soundcheck on [[11 July 1990]] at Wembley Arena in London, England. | The 1990 version contained a chant of "[[Michael B.]] in the house", which was later reused on [[Daddy Pop]]; this isn't considered to be a sample or reference to this track, however.
