Get Ready for This by 2 Unlimited

"Get Ready for This" is a song recorded by Dutch group 2 Unlimited. It was released in September 1991 as the lead single from their debut album Get Ready! Originally, the single was produced as an instrumental, titled the "Orchestral Mix". Conscious of their popularity, Wilde & De Coster wanted a more accessible, formatted formula for their project to grow. Ray was then asked to write lyrics and add a rap to the track. On Ray's suggestion, Anita joined as the female vocalist. The single was an immediate success throughout Europe with notable peaks worldwide, including Australia and the U.S. It is arguably the most famous of the band's singles in the United States having charted at number 14 on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart, number 17 on the Top 40 Mainstream and number 38 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it the band's only top-40 hit in the U.S.
