About Nothing Can Stop Us

"Nothing Can Stop Us" is the third single by Saint Etienne. Released by Heavenly Records in 1991, it is the first release to feature Sarah Cracknell, who would continue to front the band from this release on. "Nothing Can Stop Us" reached the number one spot on the American dance charts for one week. The song is based on a looped sample from Dusty Springfield's recording of "I Can't Wait Until I See My Baby's Face". "Nothing Can Stop Us" was released as a double A side with "Speedwell". As such, "Speedwell" takes lead track duty on the remix 12" single with the Flying Mix and Project Mix. The American remixes were done by the Masters At Work team of Kenny "Dope" Gonzales and Little Louie Vega. The lyric was partly re-written for these mixes, and the changes were retained in subsequent live performances. In 1994, Saint Etienne produced a new version of the song for Kylie Minogue, which was released as a b-side on her single "Confide in Me".

"Thank you, every, come on
Give her a proper Liverpool hand, you can do better than that
And now ladies and gentlemen, what you've been waiting for"

I've come a long way
You walked into my life
I was tired, in love like a fool
But I know it's gonna work out fine, yeah

I've never felt so good
I've never felt so strong
Nothing can stop us now
No, no

I've heard some people say
So wrong, oh, so wrong
Do, do you want to know?
It's true, the touch of your hand, oh

I've never felt so good
I've never felt so strong
Nothing can stop us now

I've never felt so strong
I've never felt so good
Nothing can stop us now
