The French dance-floor duo lay it on thick with staccato disco strings, slap-back synth bass, metal-machine sonics and an in-your-face pulse until the groove rocks both harder and stranger than the original. Now it's worthy of Timberlake's confession, "She's freaky but I like it."

The melody came to Butler as he was driving on the highway from Atlantic City, New Jersey, to Philadelphia with Curtis Mayfield, and as Butler told Rolling Stone, "I just sang the melody and Curtis put the chords to it." The song's premise, Butler added, "was something that I'd lived ...The lyric was an experience rather than a revelation. Whereas music is usually a revelation."
