Andre shot to fame in his native Australia with the song, a collaboration with Bubbler Ranx, and claimed a number two hit in the U.K. the following year (96).

He took an extended hiatus from his music career in 1997 after being dropped by his record label, but returned to the charts in 2004 with a re-release of Mysterious Girl, which debuted at number one in Britain. Rapper 50 Cent admits he's a big fan of the song, and he would like to re-record the track with Andre to give the tune another chart outing.

He says, "It's like Ymca, one of those songs everybody knows. Girls like it and it gets them up dancing. It makes people feel happy, even if it is never going to win a Grammy. "Pete seems like a nice guy and maybe, with the right remix, we can get him a number one in the U.S. as well as Europe this time".

 And the hip-hop star wants to be a part of the record himself - replacing Bubbler Ranx's rap section with his own contribution. He adds, "I would give my lyrics to it rather than use that guy he usedlast time".
