"Don't Lose the Magic" is a song recorded by American singer Shawn Christopher, which was co-written by Mike "Hitman" Wilson, Shawn's brother Gavin Christopher and Bill Dickens, and co-produced by Wilson with Neal Howard, Chris Cooke, George Hess and engineer Goh Hotoda. The single was the follow-up to "Another Sleepless Night", as well as her second number-one single on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart, reaching the top spot on March 28, 1992, for two weeks.[1] On the Billboard Hot 100 chart, it peaked at number 71, while in the United Kingdom, it reached number 30 on the UK Singles Chart,[2] her highest chart position there. A 1999 remix of the song also hit the US Dance chart.

Critical reception

[edit]

Larry Flick from Billboard magazine commented, "The track, which has been remixed by Mike "Hitman" Wilson, David Morales, and Todd Terry, is a slammin', R&B flavored houser that frames Christopher's fine voice with spiraling strings and a warm bass line. Guaranteed to pack dancefloors".[3] He also added that "the beats pump hard, the hook is undeniable, and Christopher proves that she is far from a one-hit wonder."[4] A reviewer from Music & Media wrote, "The '70s disco magic is revived."[5]
