Indeep - Last Night a D.J. Saved My Life

"Last Night a D.J. Saved My Life" is a song written by Michael Cleveland, sung by American group Indeep, and released as a single in 1982 by Sound of New York and Becket Records. It features vocals from Réjane "Reggie" Magloire and Rose Marie Ramsey. The track appears as the third track of the namesake album released in 1983.

In the U.S. "Last Night a D.J. Saved My Life" reached number ten on the R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart and number two on the Club Singles chart, but could only bubble under the main Hot 100, where black crossover had become very difficult in the early 1980s as a result of the anti-disco backlash. In February 1983, it peaked at number thirteen in the United Kingdom, and in March 1983 in the Netherlands on national radiostation Hilversum 3 at number two in the Dutch Top 40, Nationale Hitparade and the TROS Top 50. In the European chart on Hilversum 3, the TROS Europarade it reached number 9.

In Belgium (Flanders) Ultratop 50 it reached number 2 and even number 1 in the Radio 2 Top 30. It also made number 5 in Switzerland, number 12 in Austria and number 25 in New Zealand. In West Germany, it made it to number 10.

Because of the limited success of Indeep's later releases, the group's first single was its only major hit and placed it into the one-hit wonder category of artists.
