Well , i heard this song on Seamus Haji’s essential mix 28/1/2007.
It goes something like this: …in the beginning there was Jack , and Jack had a groove , from that groove…

I know this is a legendary song , but i don’t know the name of the song…

Please help

“In the beginning there was Jack
and jack had a groove
and from this groove came the grooves of all the grooves
and while one day viciously throwing down on his box
Jack boldly declared “LET THERE BE HOUSE!”
and HouseMusic was Born!
I am u see,
I am the creator and this is my house
and in my house there is only house music
but im not so selfish because once you enter my house
it the becomes our house and our house music
and you see no one man owns house
because house music is an universal language
spoken n’ understood by all
You see, House is a Feeling
that no one can understand really
unless you’re deep into the vibe of house
house is an uncontrollable desire to jack your body
and as i told you before
this is our House and our House Music
In every House you understand
there is a keeper in this House, the keeper is Jack
Now some of you might wonder
who is Jack and what is it that Jack Does
Jack is the one that gives you the power to jack your body
Jack is the one who gives you the power to do the snake
Jack is the one who gives you the key to the wiggly worm
Jack is the one who learns you how to walk your body
Jack is the one who can bring nations and nations
of all jackels together under one house
you may be Black
you may be White
you may be Jew or Gentile
It don’t make a difference in our House
..and This Is Fresh!!”
