Sorry to say I was disappointed :( I heard it too..... and the funny thing was .... that I was just thinking of that song a couple of days ago.... and wanting to hear it. But after hearing THIS.... I am not disappointed..... THIS is AMAZING —— like most Hooverphonic that I have heard on here. |

I'm always disappointed when it turns out to be the hooverphonics. But then again I lost my virginity to Hot Buttered Soul. Wicked good.

Actually...was pretty relieved that this turned out to be Hooverphonic and not Isaac covering "Walk on By." I've just heard it too many times on RP... |

I watched one episode, and it was nothing like the original. I just can't do it. I've got CDs of ALL the music used on all five seasons of the show, and there's just no way WB can recreate magic - especially when they dropped the ball so royally by not marketing La Femme Nikita. The music alone was worth watching the show for - the scripts, the casting, the production - those were icing on the cake. I miss that show... |

Oooh, I loved that show. Maybe this is part of the reason why. |

Very groovy, in a Portishead sort of way. Very pleasant.

Yes, echo the votes for Isaac Hayes. Some Hot Buttered Soul would be cool....

I think the problem is they have tried to be purer musicians with less emphasis on studio production, and that is a problem since the production made them interesting. As musicians and songwriters they are very ho-hum. But I highly recommend "Stereophonic Sound Spectacular". A great trip-hop/chillout album.
I totally agree! Blue Wonder Power Milk was great, but this album before it was better. Love this song especially - thanks for playing it Bill |
