The story of Ida Corr vs Fedde Le Grand

Why we feature this artist

The decision can wait; the rhythm cannot

Let Me Think About It makes Ida Corr's timing the centre of its appeal. The 2007 Fedde Le Grand collaboration turns a promise of hesitation into a particularly assured house performance.

The original and the anniversary return

The single's original package offered radio and club versions, with Corr and Le Grand revisiting the material for a Celebration Mix in 2017. The producer's own release account explicitly marked the tenth anniversary. Their return treats the vocal as material worth encountering again in another arrangement.

The space after the title

Corr gives a short phrase the authority of a decision already under control. The gaps around it are useful because they let the instrumental answer, making the arrangement feel responsive to the singer. The bright brass-like figure supplies a bold reply without taking possession of the whole track. The interplay is easy to recognise but carefully timed: a vocal entrance creates expectation, a pause holds it, and the returning rhythm makes that wait feel active. The title can postpone its answer while the record remains completely definite in its movement.
