10 of the best tracks played at Club MTV
Take a trip down memory lane
Paula Abdul 'Knocked Out' / Snap 'The Power'
Paula Abdul, the American Idol judge who spent three weeks at the top of the Billboard chart with her 1988 hit ‘Straight Up’. Although ‘Knocked Out’ didn’t fare so well in the charts, the track became a slow burner after Shep Petitbone’s 1990 rework, and soon became a true floor filler for the clubbing generation. As for Snap’s ‘The Power’, there are no words to describe the legacy of this track for dance music and club culture.
