discounting the video...i really find this song incredibly mesmerizing and extremely hot for some reason. the album cover creeps me out totally, though.
Spiderwoman (Lake Chelan, North Central Washington)
A great song that's also theme song for the great TV series "Luther".
LOL ... Just walked into the house from working in the garage and thought my wife had turned of RP and was watching Luther on Netflix. Kinda figured this song would be RP material.
There is a remix of this song out there. This song is good the remix is much better! Adds some heavy to this chill song. Check out Zeds Dead Remix I may upload it.
Er... nope. Not for me! Too much wub wub wub and what have you. This version is much, much better! No heavy is needed.
I've been re-watching Seasons 3 & 4 of True Blood, gearing up for the premiere of Season 5 — and forgot this song was used to great effect in episode 4 titled "9 Crimes" (when Bill goes to a strip club to procure "dinner" for Russell and Lorena).

It's hard to go back to preferring the original after hearing the remix.
Is this track used in the excellent BBC drama 'Luther'?
Must try and Shazam it next time it's on ;-)
Yes, it is! I just started watching Luther on Netflix this weekend and ended up watching 5 episodes, including 3 back-to-back just before I went to bed last night. Great show, great song.
Chalk another one up for Christianity: our sexuality, something as integral to our physical selves as breathing; becomes a "sin" something the "devil" makes us do.

Fred, I can relate to what you mention about the Catholic upbringing and the culture of guilt involved with it, but the human construct of Sin, and the means of guilt related to it, long predate Christianity. Ask some Jewish, stand-up comedians about the culture of guilt. Good song by the way.
This song is so quirky and weird. It reminds me of a scene from "Alien From L.A." (yeah, that dismal Kathy Ireland sci-fi travesty - but it was so bad it was funny, and I love it) where her character and that of her "rescuer" are sitting in what passes for a restaurant. There are dancers performing, and the dance is so weird and choppy, and I can almost picture them dancing to this music.
No, I'm not nuts. Well, okay, maybe a little. I loved the Leonard Cohen "Everybody Knows" reference to "Pump Up the Volume." I CAN mix my media. Trouble is, usually when I do it, people think I'm nuts. (What do the movies "Crocodile Dundee II," "Pretty Woman," and "Adventures in Babysitting" have in common?) And no fair Googling.

Curious, since the Catholic presence in South America (and maybe Yorkshire) didn't seem to slow down the birth rate any.Sorry, I get your point but couldn't resist the MP reference opportunity.
