In the heat of the night - Sandra

Released in November 1985, 'In the heat of the night' was Sandra's second solo single taken from the debut album 'The Long Play'. On the album this song lasted for over five minutes, the single version was edited to 3'48. It was a number one hit in Israel and peaked at number 2 in Germany, Sweden and Switzerland. In the Netherlands, it peaked at number 15.

I didn't like Sandra's music at first, but got turned on by a friend who lived in Utrecht. I felt a strange sense of appropriateness when I bought this single in that city.
