A massive moment in his DJ sets of late, the DJ/producer told MTV News’ Tinea Taylor ahead of his live set at Isle Of MTV in Malta, that he’s planning on releasing his remix of Cutting Crew’s ‘(I Just) Died In Your Arms’…
"I’ve got one coming very shortly. It’s kind of different though, it’s more for the clubs. I don’t know whether I should tell you or not! It’s the classic ‘(I Just) Died In Your Arms’ from the 80s and I’ve remixed it into a club banger. It’s been the biggest tune in my sets recently so yeah!"

WATCH JONAS BLUE'S 'FAST CAR' HERE:
Oh, oh
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we'll make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me myself I got nothing to prove
You got a fast car
I got a plan to get us out of here
I've been working at a convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
Won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living
You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
So remember when we were driving
Driving in your car
Speed so fast felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I, I had a feeling that I belonged
And I, I had a feeling that I could be someone
Had a feeling that I could be someone
See my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He said his body's too old for working
His body's too young to look like his
Mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did
You got a fast car
We go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs
You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
You gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
So remember when we were driving
Driving in your car
Speed so fast felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I, I had a feeling that I belonged
And I, I had a feeling that I could be someone
Had a feeling that I could be someone
(Be someone)
Had a feeling that I could be someone
