Starbright version

Background
"We Can Get It On" had been part of Starbright's repertoire ever since the band formed, but it wasn't until their first studio album that they actually recorded it. Group members Adrian Eichel and Flynn Meldon had the idea of turning "We Can Get It On" into a high-tempo new jack swing song, but producer DJ Kubin relented, as he thought the song "wouldn't be fit for a boy band." Kubin changed his mind after persuasion from group manager Lance Huws, and set to work on the group's cover of the song.
