<Tr> <Th_colspan="2"> Alternative cover </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="2"> 2005 version </Td> </Tr> <P> "Insomnia" is a song recorded by British dance group Faithless . Released as the band's second single, it became one of their most successful . It was released in 1995 and became a hit in Dance Charts while peaking at number 27 in the UK in 1995 and number three in 1996 . It re-entered the UK charts in 2005 at number 17 after the release of their greatest hits compilation Forever Faithless and was certified Platinum by the BPI in 2015 . It was voted by Mixmag readers as the fifth greatest dance record of all time . The main refrain of "Insomnia" is a drum sample of "Let Me Love You for Tonight" by artist Kariya . </P> <P> The song features Maxi Jazz singing as an insomniac while he struggles to sleep ("I toss and I turn without cease, like a curse, open my eyes and rise like yeast / At least a couple of weeks since I last slept, kept takin' sleepers, but now I keep myself pepped"). The subject is resonant with fans of dance music, as stimulant use is common in club / rave culture, and insomnia is a common side effect . The insomniac is also rather destitute ("Make my way to the refrigerator / One dry potato inside, no lie, not even bread, jam, when the light above my head went bam ..."). This song uses the Roland D - 50 custom patch "Stable Master" for its main riff . </P>
