"Remember Me" is a 1996 song by British DJ Alexis 'Lex' Blackmore under his pseudonym Blue Boy, first released by Guidance Recordings, Chicago, titled 'Scattered Emotions'.
The track originally appeared on Mark Farina's remix album Mushroom Jazz Volume One.
And actually several other people have sampled the song since, though with them it's been the onstage version I did on the (1973-released) 'Live At Montreux' album that seems to have got more attention - I guess because it was more spontaneous.
"[11] Australian music channel Max included "Remember Me" in their list of "1000 Greatest Songs of All Time" in 2012.
In Europe, it was a top 10 hit in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK.
Additionally, "Remember Me" was a top 20 hit in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands, as well as on the Eurochart Hot 100, where it peaked at No.
In late 2008, the Australian psychedelic rock band Tame Impala started performing this song as part of their live sets, eventually recording a cover version of it as a B-side to the "Sundown Syndrome" single.
[61] In November 2012, British musician Daley sampled this song for his own composition "Remember Me", with the refrain sung by Jessie J.
Obviously the title track, which takes the vocal sample "Remember Me" and builds around it to a level which justifies its standing as the basis of the album.
