Quoted from "Mr Hyper"

It could really be "Where the beats..." because it contains the album title and HP's new pseudonyme "reverend h" - it's some kind of a "theme/title/lead track" which is not knwon enough if it stays on the album.
I don't think that Scooter can only make hpv singles to be successful in the modern music industry:
Maria, One, Ti Sento were successful WITHOUT hpv (and Ti Sento could have had a higher chart entry if it wasn't released the same day with UTROTT).
And there were other quite successful songs like Jump that rock or Hello without hpv.
Non-hpv-singles aslo work for the success of hpv singles - after 4 or 5 non-hpv singles a hpv single seems fresh. If "The question" had been released after "Weekend" and "The Night" it would not have been that successful, but after "Behind the Cow" and "Lass uns tanzen" it seemed very fresh and easy - exactly this was what people liked.

I actually like this. Seems very plausible, however JAOTW was HPV after HPV. The last HPV single we had was "I'm lonely" and that was about 1 year and 8 months ago, so HPV could seem fresh. But as much as I love JAOTW, they really milked the HPV out of it. Even a non single track had it, and 4 singles were released from it, all HPV. Two instrumentals, and then intro and outro, and the rest was without HPV. It seems they haven't released an HPV single for a while, and I bet you're right. About every two years, HPV makes a return. So, here's our time.

Quoted from "Mr Hyper"

In my opinion the hard "in my aaaarms"-parts in the album version were disturbing,...

i know its irrelevant but it's "in my house" from the song 'house of love'

house of love from who? it's well known sample. it was used 15 years ago already in some retrohouse classix.

scooter,come back to belgium!!!

The only hope for TSAMH is the UK, but AATW will mess the promo up for sure, so I haven't high hopes for the UK too.

But atleast the vid is played on high rotation on MTV Dance, because TSAMH is on #1 in the Dance charts of that channel, but so was JAH, and it didn't sell too.

Good that it's winter, otherwise ****....haha...joking ofcourse

But even if you don't like TSAMH, you probably will agree that it's NOT the worst Scooter single ever for you, because I think you will agree that Suavemente or IWMFLY weren't the best single choices, but yet they were more succesfull than TSAMH, and even if you don't like TSAMH, I think you like it far more than those two I mentioned here

You're right.

But it ain't among the best singles either. Have I really said that I dislike Suevemente?

Ok, the single version ain't good but the album verdion is brilliant. WAY better than this. But the album version of TSAMH is also better than the single version. But but... Something's missing. :huh:

Nowadays you must make very brilliant music if you want it sell as a single as the CD sales have went down. Or at least you must have name and promotion. Scooter has name but not promotion. That's one thing. But this single ain't anything special either. THEY COULD HAVE DONE IT BETTER!!! :!:

Shake That goes down unrivalled as one of the most revolting pieces of music they've ever released. The Sound Above My Hair far surpasses this excrement in terms of quality, but Shake That received a far more positive reception and chart position. This is a little mystifying.

If I remember correctly, Shake That topped the Czech Republics charts and got itself a Gold award for its sale figures. TSAMH, in comparison, reached its highest position at #67 in the German charts.... Madness! I don't understand this pandemonium at all.

There's certainly no glimmer of hope for this single in the UK. Apparently AATW don't waste their time with promoting singles any more, which kind of demonstrates their commitment to move on into this century. I think Mr. Hypers assessment in the most realistic in explaining Scooters botched attempt at promoting this single and their album sufficiently. It was released far too quickly for its own good. I guess we'll never know what this single could have really accomplished given the right opportunities. It's a real shame.

Maybe because Shake That was the first single of MTG and TSAMH is only the third. So I guess there has been more promotion back then.

Oh, and the highest chart position of TSAMH was #38, but that actually doesn't make a difference, as sales-wise it's a flop anyway

It seems so, it was for them not a typicall Scooter track, or it was for them too different to previous releases Scooter had. But we can't do anything about it, it will go into history as a chart-disaster. But the TSAMH track will always be in my heart, and high amongst my favourite Scooter tracks of all time, I love it, and nothing will change that.

It's just very sad to see the track isn't appreciated as it should have been, this track really deserved BIG succes.

Shake that is a nice funky track, something which you never would have awaited from the guys. I like this tune.
