The letters B, L, A and H come to mind upon hearing this mediocre tune. Pleasant but not too memorable.

It later occurred to me that OST probably means "Original Soundtrack".  Whatever...

I like this song, and after that Snow Patrol song, this is like seeing the heavens open.
Like walking out of sweltering stuffy shit house into warm sunshine.

Hmmm. Forward planes mounted to the hull and not the tower, and high up on the hull, characteristic of a Brit design.

Thanks RP! Mighty sweet... I had the good fortune to find this on vinyl at Goodwill a few years ago for 50 cents. Remember around 1989-90 when you could buy every LP ever made for a dime? Seattle Goodwill filled a whole parking lot with LP's every year. That was one cultural wave I actually caught; so y'all be ready when the last CD is pressed and people dump them by the ton! We'll be clustered around the dusty old CD player, rememberin' the day.

I've either never heard that song, or just never really listened to it.  What a great song.

Heard the first lines and immediately remembered that Three Dog Night did this about a million years ago, and I even liked that version. This is ever-so-much better. I just love the song itself.
