"Try Me Out" is a song by Italian Eurodance project Corona, released in July 1995 by DWA (Dance World Attack) as the third single from their debut album, The Rhythm of the Night (1995). The song was written by Francesco Bontempi, Giorgio Spagna and Annerley Gordon, and contains samples from the 1987 song "Toy" by Teen Dream. Going for a harder, more underground house music sound,[1] it peaked within the top 10 in Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Italy, Spain, the UK, as well as on the Eurochart Hot 100. Outside Europe, the song was a top-10 hit in Australia and on the US Billboard Dance Club Play chart.
Critical reception
AllMusic editor Jose F. Promis named the song a "catchy Euro hit", and one of the standout tracks on the album.[3] Larry Flick from Billboard magazine wrote, "One of the leading acts of the ongoing Euro-NRG invasion of the pop mainstream unleashes another sparkler from the album The Rhythm of the Night. Corona is as giddy as an ingenue can be, and she is surrounded by a storm of syncopated beats and rollicking piano lines."[4] Writing for Dotmusic, James Masterton said, "Unlike most production-line Italian dance, Corona singles do tend to have some song substance to them which has no doubt helped their chart performance". He concluded, "Top 10 could not be out of the question for this one either."[5]
Alan Jones from Music Week commented, "Less immediate than 'The Rhythm of the Night' and 'Baby Baby', Corona's 'Try Me Out' is another slab of unsubtle Nu-NRG, best served by Lee Marrow's mixes. It's not as immediate or commercial as Corona's two big hits, but it's certain to find an instant home in the upper half of the Top 40."[2] In a retrospective review, Pop Rescue described it as a "Euro dance romp with house pianos and powerful vocals".[6] Daisy & Havoc from the Record Mirror Dance Update gave it four out of five, complimenting it as a "catchy song".[7] Another Record Mirror editor, James Hamilton, named it "nasally chanted Italo disco in typical romping 0-131-0bpm Lee Marrow Eurobeat (with some good breaks)".[8] In a very positive review for the album, Jordan Paramor from Smash Hits wrote, "Shimmy to 'Try Me Out'. Marvellous!"[9]
Chart performance
"Try Me Out" became a top-10 hit in Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom.[10][11][12][13][14] In the UK, the single peaked at number six on 30 July 1995, during its third week on the UK Singles Chart.[15] It stayed on that position for two weeks and came in at number 58 on the UK year-end chart. In the band's native Italy, "Try Me Out" peaked at number two on the Musica e dischi chart, while on the Eurochart Hot 100 and the European Dance Radio Chart, it reached number seven and number one, respectively.[16] In Scotland, it peaked at number three.[17] The single was also a top-20 hit in Austria, France, Iceland, and Sweden.[18][19][20][21]
Outside Europe, "Try Me Out" charted at number 10 on both the Australian ARIA Singles Chart and the US Billboard Dance Club Play chart, number 38 on the Billboard Maxi-Singles Sales chart, and number 43 in New Zealand.[22][23][24] On the Canadian RPM Dance chart, the song peaked at number 20.[25] "Try Me Out" was awarded a gold record in Australia for 35,000 singles shipped and a silver record in the UK, after 200,000 units were shipped.
Music video
The accompanying music video for "Try Me Out" was produced by FilmMaster Clip.[26] It depicts singer and frontwoman of the project, Olga de Souza, performing in different coloured cube-shaped rooms. Red, green and blue rooms appear to be mixed and laid on top of each other, like a Rubik's Cube. The opening and throughout the video, different people are watching a View-Master. At the most, nine cubical rooms are seen at once. They are sliding horizontally, vertical or inclined. Sometimes dancers are performing in these and other times they watches each other, through peepholes between the rooms. At the end all the nine cubes has been solved; top row in blue, middle row in red and bottom row in green.[27] "Try Me Out" was a Box Top on British music television channel The Box for 4 weeks in August 1995.[28] One month later, the video was C-listed on Germany's VIVA.[29]
