"Only If I" is the sixth single of the female Belgian dance singer Kate Ryan and was released in 2003 in Belgium. It was taken from her second studio album Stronger. It peaked #16 and was less successful there than the three former singles.
After the international success in 2002 and 2003 with the singles "Désenchantée" (#9 in European Top 200) and "Libertine" (#26) (originally by Mylène Farmer), "Only If I" only peaked #74 in the European Top 200.
In Belgium (Flanders), the single started at #34, before reaching #16, its peak position. Then it dropped slowly, staying only three weeks in the top 20 and 11 on the whole chart (top 50).
Other chart runnings were also rather disappointing.
We got the message
I heard it on the airwaves
The politicians
Are now DJ's
The broadcast was spreading
Station to station
Like an infection
Across the nation
Well you know you can't stop it
When they start to play
You gotta get out the way
The politics of dancing
The politics of ooo feeling good
The politics of moving
Is this message understood
We're under the pressure
Yes we're counting on you
That what you say
Is what you do
It's in the papers
It's on your t.v. news
The application
It's just a point of view
Well you know you can't stop it
When they start to play
You gotta get out the way
The politics of dancing
The politics of ooo feeling good
The politics of moving
Is this message understood
The politics of dancing
The politics of ooo feeling good
The politics of moving
