On the UK and American issues of the Republica album, this mix of the song was credited just as "Ready to Go", and on the European issue of the album it is sometimes marked as "Ready to Go (US mix)". It sounds faster and its beat is stronger, making it heavier in terms of tones. It was remixed by Ben Grosse and released as a single in 1997. Ī mix was included in the Republica album as the opening track. It charted at number 43 in the United Kingdom and number 40 in Australia.
This version has a more techno-pop sound while the later version contains electric guitars. The bridge is similar to that of the original mix, except it lacks a piano. It does not have the piano bridge of the original mix, nor the guitar bridge of the US mix. This version is softer than both the US and original mixes of the song. It is an unreleased song or probably an early demo with slightly different vocal (but lyrics remain the same). Īlso known as "Ready to Go ", "Ready to Go (original)" or incorrectly as "Ready to Go (album version)", it was not included in any of the band's albums.
It continues to be successful in the UK, where it is still frequently featured in advertisements and on TV. German DJ Tomcraft released a cover of the song in 2007, and another version was released on 7 June 2010. This rerelease also saw the song chart for the first time in western Europe, reaching number 19 in the Netherlands and number 26 in Ireland. It was remixed and rereleased in the United Kingdom in February 1997, when it reached a new peak of number 13. Later in the year, the song began to gain popularity outside the United Kingdom, charting in Australia, Canada, and the United States. The single originally reached number 43 on the UK Singles Chart in April 1996. This version was later featured on a greatest hits collection, Ready to Go: The Best Of. The original recording was not included on the band's debut album, Republica – two other versions of the song, the US mix and the original mix, were included. " Ready to Go" is a song by English alternative rock band Republica, released as a single on 15 April 1996.
