"Give Me the Light" is a song recorded by British, Italy based Eurodance artist Ice MC, featuring vocals by Italian singer Valentina Ducros.[1] Produced by German Eurodance project Masterboy, it was released in 1996 by Club Zone as the first single from Ice MC's fourth album, Dreadatour (1996). The song was a moderate hit in Europe, entering the top 20 in Finland (19), and the top 30 in Austria (30), France (23) and Italy (23). On the Eurochart Hot 100, "Give Me the Light" peaked at number 51 in July 1996. Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote, "With a crafty production and strong chorus, this US-born, Italy-residing artist once again proves that he is one of the prime exponents of the Euro-dance scene."[2]
