Remixes version

"Back in the U.K." is a song by German group Scooter. It was released in November 1995 as the lead single from their 1996 album Our Happy Hardcore. In the United Kingdom it became their biggest hit ever up to that point, entering at number 18 in the UK Singles Chart in February 1996. It would remain their highest charting single until the release of "The Logical Song" in 2002, which reached number 2. The song was re-recorded as "Back in Ireland" for the Irish market.

Samples

• "Back In The UK" samples the theme tune of the British film series Miss Marple, originally composed by Ron Goodwin.
• A remixed version of "Crank it Up" is used in the Da Ali G Show as Brüno's (played by Sacha Baron Cohen) intro song.
