"The Power" (a.k.a. I've Got The Power) is an electronic pop hit song for the group Snap!. The song went to number two on the Billboard Hot 100 singles charts in the US during the summer of 1990.
The vocal "I've got the power" line is a sample from Disco singer Jocelyn Brown's song "Love's Gonna Get You". The song also heavily samples rapper Chill Rob G's "Let The Words Flow."
The song has made many appearances in film, television and other media. It is also popular as a sporting event anthem. For example, it is played at times at hockey games throughout North America as home teams go on a power-play.
