One More Tune
“I Wish I Didn’t Miss You” by Angie Stone is one of those records that refuses to leave the dancefloor - or your memory, the moment it drops. Released on her 2001 album Mahogany Soul via J Records, it has quietly become a modern soul classic and a guaranteed “one more tune” moment for DJs who know how to end a night properly.
At its core, the track is a brutally honest confession about trying to cut ties with someone who has done you wrong but still lives rent‑free in your head. The story follows a woman who knows the relationship is toxic - she’s been lied to, hurt and left emotionally exhausted - yet she can’t shake the ache of missing that person. That emotional contradiction is summed up in the unforgettable line: “Memories don’t live like people do,” a reminder that the past can cling on long after a lover has gone.
Musically, the song’s power comes from how it fuses classic and contemporary soul. Built around a sample of The O’Jays’ 1972 hit “Back Stabbers,” the track carries that same paranoid, tense groove, perfectly mirroring the theme of betrayal running through the lyrics. The sample doesn’t feel like a gimmick; it anchors the song in the Philadelphia soul tradition while Stone’s vocal and the crisp neo‑soul production pull it firmly into the 2000s.
Behind the scenes, the record almost didn’t happen. Written by Andrea Martin and Ivan Matias, the song was initially met with hesitation from Stone, who reportedly didn’t want to delay her album to record it until label head Clive Davis pushed for its inclusion. In hindsight, that decision looks inspired: “I Wish I Didn’t Miss You” went on to become one of her defining tracks and a staple of her live shows, often demanded as the closing number.
Today, the song sits in that sweet spot where R&B heads, soul purists and club crowds all claim it as theirs. It’s the tune that surfaces at 3 a.m., when the lights are low, the last drink is in hand, and everyone in the room suddenly remembers someone they wish they didn’t miss.
“I Wish I Didn’t Miss You” was another big moment in Carl Cox’s incredible history with Space Ibiza – it was the final emotional full stop at the end of the club’s story. As the Space Closing Fiesta unfolded in October 2016, Cox had already taken dancers on one last marathon journey through house and techno, but choosing Angie Stone’s soulful anthem as the final tune reframed the goodbye from pure celebration into something far more bittersweet.
By the time that vocal dropped – “Memories don’t live like people do” – the entire dancefloor knew they were living through a piece of clubbing history. The lyrics spoke directly to what everyone in that room was feeling: a mix of gratitude, heartbreak and denial that this temple of nightlife was about to disappear. Space wasn’t just a venue; for many, it represented summers of friendships, romances, sunrise dances on the terrace and life-changing trips to Ibiza. Hearing that line echo through the sound system turned a closing party into a collective moment of mourning and celebration rolled into one.
The choice was also classic Carl Cox: a DJ known for pounding techno sets, yet unafraid to end on something soulful, vocal and emotionally exposed. “I Wish I Didn’t Miss You” bridged generations, pulling in the soul and disco heads with its O’Jays sample while still resonating with ravers who had grown up on house music. In doing so, it honoured Space’s legacy as a club that always balanced underground credibility with genuine feeling and openness on the dancefloor.
Since that night, footage of Cox playing the track has circulated endlessly in documentaries, social clips and nostalgic throwbacks, cementing the song as part of Space folklore. For many clubbers, even hearing the opening bars now instantly triggers memories of that final confetti-filled, emotional crescendo – a last tune that perfectly captured what it means to miss a place as intensely as a person.
