Why we feature this artist
Ida Corr: a voice with its own rhythmic pull
Ida Corr can make a vocal sound as rhythmically precise as the drums beneath it. Her phrasing has weight, but also a quickness that lets a short line carry an entire dance record. The Danish singer’s route to international recognition began with songs that already moved between soul, pop and club music.
Before the remix
Streetdiva appeared in 2005, followed by Robosoul in 2006. Those titles give a fair indication of the territory: a singer interested in the presence of a soul performance, working with arrangements that could accommodate electronic production and a much harder rhythmic edge.
Let Me Think About It belonged to Robosoul before its better-known international club version arrived. That order matters. The song began inside Corr’s own album, with a vocal identity and a hook already in place.
A different frame for the same voice
Fedde Le Grand’s 2007 version brought the song into a more concentrated house arrangement. A short vocal figure, a bold instrumental response and the pressure of the beat make its structure immediately legible. The record is economical without sounding thin.
Corr’s delivery is central to that economy. A small change of emphasis gives a repeated phrase another push; the voice can be commanding without having to overwhelm the production. The musical exchange feels active, rather than a singer merely decorating a backing track.
The song behind the club record
The success of the remix makes it an obvious introduction, but the earlier albums give that introduction some depth. Corr was developing a broader vocal sound before one arrangement became especially familiar.
Streetdiva, Robosoul and the Fedde Le Grand version offer three useful points of entry. Across them, the rhythmic confidence is consistent. What changes is the space around the voice, and how much of the song that space invites a listener to notice.
