Track Description
Available in:
"Get Ready for This" is the title of a song recorded by Belgian/Dutch eurodance group 2 Unlimited. Initially, it was released as an instrumental track by Belgian producers/songwriters Phil Wilde and Jean Paul De Coster in May 1991. When the song became a hit, Wilde and De Coster took Dutch rapper Ray Slijngaard and singer Anita Doth on board to front the act, and it was released again in September 1991 (this time with vocals) as the lead single from their debut album Get Ready! It is arguably the most famous of the band's singles in the United States; having reached number 17 on the Top 40 Mainstream and 38 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it the band's only Top 40 hit. However, its success was eclipsed elsewhere in the world by their fifth single "No Limit".

The famous repeated line "Y'all ready for this?" is sampled from The D.O.C.'s hit single "It's Funky Enough".

The song is one of the most frequently played songs at sporting events around the world, and was the opening song for the Green Bay Packers in Superbowl XLV, and similarly served as the opening song at one time for two NBA teams, the Orlando Magic and the San Antonio Spurs. It has also been the opening song for several Major League Baseball teams, including the Cleveland Indians, Colorado Rockies, Houston Astros, Miami Marlins, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, Pittsburgh Pirates and San Diego Padres, as well as the Montreal Canadiens of the NHL. It has also been the goal song at one time or another for two other NHL teams, the Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs, and has been included on the sports compilation CD Jock Jams, Volume 1, and in the movie Space Jam starring Michael Jordan.

The song has also appeared in the film Bring It On, on the television series Moesha and in the popular TV comedy series Friends (Season 3 episode 9: The One With The Football). Its status as a sports anthem was parodied by Beavis and Butthead when Beavis asks if they are watching an American football game when the music video to the song comes on. It also appeared in How to Eat Fried Worms and was the first song ever played by Radio Disney.
