Ever wondered what a Narcotic Thrust is? Fear not, it's not something spectacularly sinister or sexual, it is, in fact an anagram of Stuart Crichton, one half of the British dance music duo. Stuart and Andy Morris met in 1996 to produce 'Funky Acid Baby', which was petty much ignored.
Their breakthrough came with the track 'Safe From Harm', for which they hired Yvonne John Lewis on the vocals. 'Safe From Harm' is completely meaningful to the people on the dance floor and carries a captivating voice, it's a peak hour track yet not bangin'. Deep, groovy and driving bass line, with vocals and strings, and a trippy overall feeling, this track is almost the definition of 'Progressive House'. The difference between the several mixes is really subtle; the original being the 'flattest' one; the others nicely emphasize the 'housy' aspects. It went on to become my Tune of the Year 2002.

Lyrics:
Iclendigim günler oldu
Bozuldugum seyler oldu
Hicbirini yansitmadim
Konuşmaksa bi hayal oldu
Üzülmem mi, bozulmam mi
Kirilmam mi,darilmam mi of!
Kadersiz miyim neyim?
Oyuncagin miyim neyim?
Of of Kömür gibi yaniyorum
Of of Ayip midir seviyorum
Of of Hislerimle oynuyorsun
Gir gir gecip duruyorsun
Neden böyle yapiyorsun of!
Of of Kömür gibi yaniyorum
Of of Ben derdimi biliyorum
Of of Düslerime giriyorsun
Bi girdin mi cikmiyorsun
Neden böyle yapiyorsun of!
Ben sadece gölgen oldum
Dur dedigin yerde durdum
Bes para etmez dünyada
Güvendigim bir sen oldun
Olan yine bana oldu
Sana bir gün daha dogdu of!
English translation:
there have been days that i grieved
there have been things i was offended
i havent shown them
speaking has been dream as well
i am not sad, i am not offended
i am not hurt, i am not cross
i am unlucky
i am your game
i am burning like coal
is it shame i love
you play with my feelings
you kid with me
why do u do this
i am burning like coal
i know my trouble
you enter my dreams
when you enter you don't leave
why do you do this
i have only been your shadow
i have stopped where you said
in the world which isn't worth it
you have been one i trust
the things have happened to me recently
one more day has arisen for you

Lyrics:
Especially for you
I want to let you know what I was going through
All the time we were apart
I thought of you
You were in my heart
My love never changed
I still feel the same
Especially for you
I want to tell you I was feeling that way too
And if dreams were wings, you know
I would have flown to you
To be where you are
No matter how far
And now that I'm next to you
No more dreaming about tomorrow
Forget the loneliness and the sorrow
I've got to say
It's all because of you
And now we're back together, together
I want to show you my heart is oh so true
And all the love I have is
Especially for you
Especially for you
I want to tell you, you mean all the world to me
How I'm certain that our love was meant to be
You changed my life
You showed me the way
And now that I'm next to you
I've waited long enough to find you
I want to put all the hurt behind you
Oh,
And I want to bring out all the love inside you
Oh
And now we're back together, together
I want to show you my heart is oh so true
And all the love I have is
Especially for you
You were in my heart
My love never changed
And now we're back together, together
I want to show you my heart is oh so true
And all the love I have is
Especially for you

Lyrics:
I saw you there, just standing there
And I thought I was only dreaming yeah
I kissed you then, then once again
You said you would come and dance with me
Dance with me across the sea
And we could feel the motion of a thousand dreams
Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?
Ships at night give such delight
We all leave before the morning light
Please don't go no please don't go
Cause I don't want to stay here on my own
Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?
Fever breathe your love on me (breathe your love)
Take away my name (take away)
Fever lay your hands on me (breathe your love)
Never be the same
Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?
Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?
Come with me and make believe
We can travel to eternity

Lyrics:
Like a movie scene
In the sweetest dreams
I have pictured us together
Now to feel your lips
On my fingertips
I have to say is even better
Then I ever thought it could possibly be
It's perfect, it's passion, it's setting me free
From all of my sadness
The tears that I've cried
I have spent all of my life
Waiting for tonight, oh
When you would be here in my arms
Waiting for tonight, oh
I've dreamed of this love for so long
Waiting for tonight
Tender words you say
Take my breath away
Love me now, leave me never
Found a sacred place
Lost in your embrace
I want to stay in this forever
I think of the days when the sun used to set
On my empty heart, all alone in my bed
Tossing and turning
Emotions were strong
I knew I had to hold on
Waiting for tonight, oh
When you would be here in my arms
Waiting for tonight, oh
I've dreamed of this love for so long
Waiting for tonight
Waiting for tonight, oh
When you would be here in my arms
Waiting for tonight, ohv I've dreamed of this love for so long
Waiting for tonight
Gone are the days when the sun used to set
On my empty heart all alone in my bed
Tossing and turning
Emotions were strong
I knew I had to hold on
Waiting for tonight, oh
When you would be here in my arms
Waiting for tonight, oh
I've dreamed of this love for so long
Waiting for tonight
