Description: Sylvester You Make Me Feel Mighty Real 12"Ultimix Patrick Cowley Martha WashFills every dance floor everywhere "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" is a 1978 song by American disco/R&B singer Sylvester. It was written by James Wirrick and Sylvester, and released by Fantasy Records as the second single from the singer's fourth album, Step II (1978). The song was already a largely popular dance club hit in late 1978, as the B-side of his previous single "Dance (Disco Heat)", before it was officially being released in December. It rose to the number one position on the US Billboard Dance Club Songs chart. Music critic Robert Christgau has said the song is "one of those surges of sustained, stylized energy that is disco's great gift to pop music".A-You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real) (12" Ultimix)6:51B1-You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real) (Radio Version)3:49B2-You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real) (Dub Version)4:54B3-You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real) (Acapella)1:48 In 2003, Q Magazine included "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" in their list of the "1001 Best Songs Ever". In 2019, the song was selected by the Library of Congressfor preservation in the National Recording Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". In 2023, Billboard ranked it among the "500 Best Pop Songs of All Time".The song was originally recorded as a mid-tempo piano-driven gospel song; however, after producer Patrick Cowley saw a rehearsal of the song at San Francisco's City Club, he offered to remix the song. The result was one of the pioneering disco records using some electronic instrumentation and effects, following closely on "I Feel Love" by Donna Summer which heavily used electronic instrumentation ahead of its time. These 1970s songs using electronic instrumentation would have an influence on 1980s and 1990s dance music, which in turn, would have an influence on dance music in the next century. The song was Sylvester's first top 10 hit in the United Kingdom, where it peaked at No. 8 on the UK Singles Chart in October 1978. In Sylvester's home country, the single was his second top 40 hit, peaking at No. 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in February 1979.[7] The song also reached No. 20 on the Billboard Hot Soul Singleschart. A 12" single was released in 1978, with "Dance (Disco Heat)" as the A-side and "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" as the B-side, and these two extended dance mixes proved to be very popular in dance clubs at the time. The two songs held down the top spot on the Billboard Dance/Disco chart for six weeks in August and September 1978.These two songs helped to establish Sylvester's career as a noted disco and dance music performer, both in the US and abroad.
