DJ Sammy (born Samuel Bouriah, October 29, 1969 in Mallorca, Spain) is a dance music DJ. He has had four Top 10 hits in the United Kingdom, one of them being a cover of Bryan Adams's Heaven. He has been praised for his many collaborations with Dj patzer.
His cover of Heaven was a collaboration with Dominique van Hulst, a popular Dutch vocalist who is usually known as Do. He has also collaborated with Loona, whom he later married, in the making of some of his singles. In addition he has also collaborated with Yanou, who produced the more subtle Heaven (Candlelit Mix), and later Heaven 911, commemorating the victims of 9/11.
Although it reached #2 in the UK charts, some people criticised his cover of Don Henley's "Boys of Summer" as they felt it didn't reflect the true meaning of the song.
