"Make It Happen" is a dance/rock song written and performed by the Bernard Sumner/Johnny Marr band Electronic.
Sumner and Marr both contribute vocals and guitar, while Jimi Goodwin from Doves provides bass and Jed Lynch plays drums and percussion.
This featured an Ice-T sample that was cut from the album version due to a clearance problem.
