1996 single by Party Animals
"Have You Ever Been Mellow" is the first single of Dutch pop-gabber group Party Animals and was released on their debut album, Good Vibrations (1996). The track was released in January 1996 by Mokum Records and became their first number one hit in the Netherlands. It contains a sample of "Have You Never Been Mellow" by Olivia Newton-John. The chorus was also reused except that "never" was replaced by "ever". Musically, the song is totally different with a fast gabber beat. It made the 1996 yearlist at a #21 position. The single was certified Gold.[1] "Have You Ever Been Mellow" remains an often requested song in the Netherlands and reached the 35 position at 3FM's 90s Request Top 100 of 2006.[2] It was a minor hit in the United Kingdom but, like other songs in its genre, sold better in Scotland.
