Comment The Story Of the first time you heard this track👇
Back when MTV actually played music clips. First time on their MTV Clubs around 2001.
The first time I heard it was in 2001 on a well-known brazilian FM radio station, Jovem Pan.
It was a year of many personal transformations, I was 19 years old, I was already a DJ and I was extremely in love with a girl. It was very difficult to conquer her and like any teenager dealing with a feeling as intense as love, this song somehow helped me get through this phase. It combined the strength of House Music with beautiful lyrics. I played this track at many parties. We started dating in 2002 and stayed together until 2017. Every time I hear it I get emotional to recognize that this version of “Another Chance” has become one of the soundtracks of my life. I take this opportunity to register here my eternal thanks to Roger Sanchez for this true masterpiece and greetings to the greatest love of my life, Maria Eliza.
a bit hard to remember because I was 10 years old at the time xD
When MTV was really MTV. I was shocked, amazed, this song touched my soul and still does.
Con ésta canción me levantaba para ir a la universidad a inicios del 2000. La escuchó y disfruto tal como la primera vez.
Afterlife mix takes this to new levels
Choooooon
You have made some of the best tunes Roger Sanchez
What a great song! My God!
Me at 23 years old, going 182 km away from my home to work to make an “economic difference” and marry the girl who, shortly after, was going to break my heart (luckily before we got married)… and this song playing in the cold nights…
Music is incredibly powerful.
Another fantastic way to spend 7 minutes listening to this. I can recall when that drop hit the floor went mental. Similar structures were usually successful.
You’re one of the DJs that got me into House music. Another Chance was on repeat in my teen years.
