And the "looking back to see if...." is lifted straight from Popa Chubby. |

Notable favorites:
Seal
Alpha Blondy
Bjork...previous played as well tonight, thx Bill.
The Doors
808 State
...and the list goes on, however it was a loooong time ago.;-) 808 State! The Orb! Chemical Bros! Crystal Method! It was a long time ago. Remember Stumpy's movie Ptex, Lies, and Videotape? Billy Idol's best song ever (Shangrila) set to otherworldly underwater surfing sequences inside the waves at Tavirua.... that film and that music made the girls' clothes just fall off... :-) |

At least part of this song seems to have been 'lifted' in totality from Billy Cobham's Stratus. What's with that. . . . .

Until this album came out I had thought the "electronic music" is not for me.
Solid 9. You are not even 40 and consider yourself old? This song/band is not "electronic music" (at all!!!). |
