Swimming and swimming and swimming until you reach the ocean
Swimming into the sunset without me
There are 4 young girls giving me water from a vine leaf
Dropping it onto my tongue

Toke Oct 03, 2012 - 12:54 | Reminds me of the great old 'Steam days'' when railway engines were coal fired , I hear the hissing of the steam , the rush through the tunnel even the whistle , wonderful memories of great days .. Well dione Wills but obviously not written as such but art is in the eye/ear of the beholder. |
chelsiaann Oct 03, 2012 - 12:47 | Impressive.I didn't expect this at all, but as soon as I heard it I could tell it was from another lifetime of mine. I love this era in electronica. |
Rotterdam Sep 01, 2012 - 23:46 | How interesting. I was listening to this thinking how I liked the song OK, and then a woman's voice came on that ruined it for me. On checking the song info, I saw it was Beth Orton's voice. Which I have always disliked intensely. At least I'm consistent.... |
mostling Aug 15, 2012 - 11:13 | Orbit was way ahead of the curve. All the Strange Cargo's are good listening. |

I miss my little (now repaired but not back in operation yet) tube amp, but my AudioEngine A5's are doing a fine job of this, too! |
krysthal Jun 23, 2012 - 12:20 | Fantastic, particularly for 1993. Pre-Internet for most of us. William Orbit was quite a pioneer in this style. |
