Description
"Precious Little Diamond" is a song by Dutch funk band Fox the Fox, originally released in 1984. The single peaked at # 5 in Germany and the US and became a hit in France, UK, Italy, and Belgium.
George Michael was a huge fan of the song and introduced the band to CBS Records in 1984. Dieter Bohlen from Modern Talking has been cited with this song as the inspiration for using falsetto choruses in his songs.
In 2013, the song was sampled in The Weeknd's song "Wanderlust". The Weeknd sampled the melody, the original chorus, and a part of the original lyrics.
To celebrate the 40th anniversary of "Precious Little Diamond", 4 versions are available on a 12", exclusively for Record Store Day 2024. This 12-inch includes the Shep Pettibone remix and Ben Liebrand remix. Its audio is remastered at Artone Studios and cut on 45RPM. This is a 40th anniversary edition of 500 copies on translucent red coloured vinyl.
