          <title>The biggest crime in pop music?</title>
          <description>&lt;p&gt;The re-recorded version of “Ride on Time” (featuring an uncredited Heather Small on vocals) released in the UK on Deconstruction Records.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;lite-youtube style=&quot;aspect-ratio: 16/9;&quot; videoid=&quot;M0quXl_od3g&quot; params=&quot;start=0&amp;amp;modestbranding=2&quot;&gt;
&lt;/lite-youtube&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It was (re)made as the original samples couldn’t be cleared. The track’s success is what gave us &lt;em&gt;M People&lt;/em&gt;, for better or worse. 😅  Sadly this version is the one you hear today on UK radio.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And here’s the original version of “Ride on Time”, released in Italy by the &lt;em&gt;real&lt;/em&gt; BLACK BOX in 1989.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;lite-youtube style=&quot;aspect-ratio: 16/9;&quot; videoid=&quot;R3aW9kkfvWk&quot; params=&quot;start=0&amp;amp;modestbranding=2&quot;&gt;
&lt;/lite-youtube&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The original Italian version of “Ride on Time” can be found today because the samples of the Salsoul Records classic, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddsO36srle0&quot;&gt;Loleatta Holloway’s “Love Sensation”&lt;/a&gt;, were eventually (finally!) cleared in 2018!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ride_on_Time#Sampling_dispute&quot;&gt;Read more about this on Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
