Calvin Harris: 'Ready For The Weekend'

The promise of a "barbeque summer" may not have panned out quite as we'd hoped, but that hasn't stopped Calvin Harris from wanting to sate our appetite for scorching dance anthems. Already responsible for 'I'm Not Alone', the first big club tune of the summer, the Scottish knob-twiddler is back and he's got one thing on his mind again.

Like many a night on the tiles, 'Ready For The Weekend' takes a while to get going, but once it does it's guaranteed to leave you satisfied. Beginning with snappy beats and tinkled ivories, it gradually builds momentum before a whopping great hook arrives at the 70-second mark. "Wooh! I've put on my shoes and I'm ready for the weekend!" booms Mary Pearce, a proper dance diva delivering a proper dance chorus. The result is another case of "mission accomplished" for Mr Harris - now all we need is a bit of sun.
