Say Captain Say What 2015 (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 3/6/15
It’s been about two years since the last Captain Jack single, but CJ is back with a couple of new 2015 remixes of “Say Captain Say Wot.” There’ll also be a new album coming soon titled “20 Years,” which probably means another greatest hits.
The 90s Mega Party
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 5/3/13
“New” album from Captain Jack, though it’s really just another greatest hits collection including some of the new remixes that have come out in recent years.
Available on Amazon as well as other online retailers.
Give It Up 2013 (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 4/22/13
Captain Jack is back with another update of a classic CJ song, this time with lots of new remixes of “Give It Up.” Remixers include Ace da Brain, Marc Reason, Black$$star, Damon Paul, and many others. Captain Jack also has yet another new female vocalist, Michelle Stanley, who replaces Laura Martin after 3 years. The official Captain Jack website also has a new design, though there’s not much there yet.
Available on Amazon.
Captain Jack (Russian Edit 2012) (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 3/23/12
New Russian edit of the classic Captain Jack song o_O The CJ parts are the same, but Liza da Costa has been replaced by a Russian female vocalist, and all her parts are now in Russian. The single also includes the epic 2010 Ace da Brain mix as well as the acoustic version.
Available on Amazon and Juno Download, among others.
Born in the USA (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 12/19/11
Another new song from the new Captain Jack. This one’s a cover/remake of the Bruce Springsteen classic. Whereas the original was about Vietnam, CJ’s version updates the lyrics to be about more current situations.
Available on iTunes, Amazon, and Juno Download.
I Was a Fool/Rainbow in the Sky (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 12/8/11
New single from the new Captain Jack. It’s labeled as “a new single for Christmas” and the artwork reflects that, but the lyrics don’t. o_O The first track is your usual generic eurodance ballad, while “Rainbow in the Sky” is actually from the 2008 album, Captain Jack Is Back! Odd that they would include a track from that and not from Back to the Dancefloor. Maybe they figured that everyone forgot about it.
Available on iTunes, Amazon, and Juno Download.
Saturday Night (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 11/23/12
Second single from the new Captain Jack’s latest album. It’s available at Juno Download as well as iTunes and other online music stores.
Back to the Dancefloor
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 4/22/11
Captain Jack is back!!! This collection of remixes and new tracks was originally set for release years ago, but is only now seeing the light of day. Right now it’s available in the UK on various sites like UK 7digital or Juno Download. It doesn’t seem to be available at any US stores yet, but this post will be updated when it is. Judging by the samples, the best stuff was already released on last year’s Hits Remixes EP, but the new stuff isn’t half bad.
Back to the Dancefloor
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: January 2011
Captain Jack is back!!! This collection of remixes and new tracks was originally set for release this past October, but apparently it’s been delayed until the new year. It’s surprisingly mostly new material, so if you’re only interested in the new remixes of classic CJ tracks, then you’re better off getting the Hit Remixes 2010 single. I believe this is the first time that the Cheeky Trax remix of “Dream A Dream” has been commercially available, however.
“People Like to Party” was a great track, so I’m actually really looking forward to the new songs. “How does it feel” looks like it’ll be the requisite eurodance ballad, though.
Hit Remixes 2010 (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 11/22/10
Now this is more like it! Ace da Brain starts off this collection of 2010 remixes with a trance remix of Captain Jack’s eponymous song. It’s a fantastic remix that gives the song a fresh feel yet still retains CJ’s distinct military style. “Drill Instructor” is similarly updated with a trance sound, and thankfully retains all of the lyrics. “Soldier Soldier,” is a noticeably darker take on the song, with a strong emphasis on bass. For purists, I *think* that they kept the old vocals. If not, then Bruce does one heckuva Franky Gee impersonation. All in all, it’s a great collection of remixes, and if the upcoming “Back to the Dancefloor” is anywhere near as good as this then we’re in for quite a treat.
People Like to Party (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 10/1/10
The maxi single is finally out for “People Like to Party” and includes two new remixes. It turns out that the Samba mix was the one featured in the music video, as the radio mix lacks the added latin flair.
Best of Acoustic
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 9/6/10
The album will is now on sale at musicload, Amazon MP3, and 7Digital. It’s cheapest at Amazon, where it’s only $7.99.
I was initially worried that the songs might have re-recorded vocals, but they wisely used the originals where applicable. The arrangements are pleasant enough, though a few clearly weren’t made for slower tempos.
Best of Acoustic
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: 9/6/10
Well, this is certainly a surprise. Back to the Dancefloor was supposed to be coming out this September, but it looks like they’ll be releasing this acoustic collection in its stead. The album will include acoustic versions of CJ’s most popular songs such as “Captain Jack,” “Drill Instructor,” and Only “You.” There will also be new tracks like “People Like to Party” and “Everything Started with Captain Jack.”
The album will be on sale at musicload and presumably at other online retailers as well. In the meantime, they’ve also released yet another greatest hits album titled, “Meine Besten.”
People Like to Party (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: Fall 2010
The first single off Captain Jack’s new album just had a music video released:
Damn, I really, really like it. It’s got a great summery feel and sounds like it could have been on CJ’s Cafe Cubar album. If the rest of the album is anything like this then Beat Disaster may finally be forgiven for that horrid “Captain Jack Is Back” fiasco.
You can buy a high quality version of the music video at Music Load:

The song itself isn’t available for purchase just yet. Hopefully they’ll release a single later on with some remixes.
Deutschland Schiess ein Tor (Single)
Artist: Captain Jack
Release Date: Spring 2010
Captain Jack is back with a new single celebrating Germany and the World Cup. The title translates to “Germany Shoots a Goal.” Not a bad song, really. I’m especially fond of the Dance Mix, though it’s strangely absent from download sites. Maybe it’s exclusive to the Maxi CD?
