Raze - Break 4 love (1988)

"Break 4 Love" is a song written, produced and recorded by house-music group Raze. The song, the group's only significant hit, featured vocals by Keith Thompson. The single peaked at number 28 in the UK Singles Chart and it topped the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart in 1988. It is still considered a classic of the early house music genre. The song has been remixed, re-recorded and reissued on several different independent dance music labels, the most significant of which, "All 4 Love (Break 4 Love 1990)", climbed to number 30 in the UK in early 1990.
Sydney Youngblood's "If Only I Could" used the bassline and drumbeat from "Break 4 Love", and reached number three on the UK Singles Chart.
"Break 4 Love" was covered by Peter Rauhofer and Pet Shop Boys, released under the name "Peter Rauhofer + Pet Shop Boys = The Collaboration". The single was not released in the United Kingdom and did not chart there. The song can be found on the U.S. bonus disc of the Pet Shop Boys album Release and a B-Side to CD2 of their single, "Home and Dry".

The single did not chart on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, but it peaked at number one on the Hot Dance Club Play chart . (souce : wikipedia)
