"One More Time" is the lead single from the album, One More Time by the German Eurodance and Pop music project Real McCoy. Released in 1997, it was a Top 5 single in Australia, where it was certified Platinum.[1] The song also reached number-one on the Canadian dance music chart and number 14 on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart in the US.

Critical reception[]

Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "It's been two years since Real McCoy helped turn the tide for dance music at pop radio with "Another Night", "Runaway", and "Come and Get Your Love". And while there are dozens of competent, similar-sounding acts vying for attention, there's truly nothing like the real thing—as proved by this giddy preview into the group's forthcoming sophomore release. The beats race with Euro-NRG verve, and the chorus is downright unshakable. The combination of chorus-chirping and verse-rapping continues to work extremely well."[2] Diana Valois from The Morning Call described it as "typical pumped-up Eurodisco. Bright and irresistible, it ends with O-J begging, "Do it just one more time ..."."[3] Chuck Campbell from Scripps Howard News Service said the band "revives its slap-happy energy" on the track.[4]

Chart performance[]

"One More Time" was a major hit on several charts, although it didn't reach the same level of success as the band's first singles. It managed to peak at number-one on the RPM Dance Chart and number 8 on the Canadian Hot 100 in Canada. The single was successful also in Australia, where it reached number 3, making it the second most successful song by the band there, after "Another Night". In the United States, it was a moderate success, going to number 14 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs and number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100. In Europe, "One More Time" peaked within the Top 30 in Iceland, reaching number 25. It was also a Top 90 hit in Germany, reaching number 85. The single was awarded with a platinum record in Australia, with a sale of 70,000 units.

Music video[]

The music video for "One More Time" was directed by Scottish director Paul Boyd.[5] It features the band performing the song in a night club. The video was uploaded to YouTube in October 2009. In September 2020, it has got more than 4.9 million views.[6]
