It's a reworking of a underground dance tune by The Ones.

It was a massive European hit for old George.

And did it take time to be avaliable at iTunes:

BECAUSE AMERICAN RETAIL SUCKS AND DOESN'T GIVE A DAMM FOR REAL MUSIC! wink

Yeah, I remember the video for that. nod

Anyway, I think I actually did a thread about it once (the GM version) and about the video for that one too, and everyone pretty much laughed at me. confused So what else is new.

He started his concerts with this last year - well, as soon as he'd stepped out from behind the screen. It's a great song.

Wow, great song, indeed.

Yes, sort of. The song was a theme throughout the story. GM made a brief appearance as a vision of sorts.
BTW, Precious Box is a modern GM classic. Good stuff.

Darn, I missed it! I thought it came on at 8PM and when I checked I saw Lost. I checked back at 9 and Lost was still on. By 10 I forgot about it.

It was OK. I'm not into all the Lawyer shows but it was cool to see GM on american television. That rarely happens unless it's some kinda scandel.

had no idea it was an underground hit prior to George's version until this thread. wow.

by the way, instead of putting "url" in the brackets, type "youtube" and you have the tag to embed.
