If we're talking DJ Shadow then you're getting repped, if we're talking Paul Oakenfold you're getting repped (but in a less positive sense).

You know, I was recently thinking "If I move back to Atlanta next year, I'll have to start hanging out with Will some."

innsmouth is probably correct. Murray Head. In this case, there is no rep that exists to stop misfit from ever doing such an evil thing again.

And Nick brings Taco into the mix. Thanks.

Can't be too careful with your company.

And I was indeed referring to Murray Head. I didn't even know there were updated remixes, because I am old.

"I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine!"

Never knew there were other versions outside the Murray Head one, actually.

There's a live DJ Shadow album called 'One Night in Bangkok' which is kind of bizarre but interesting enough.

I think the better question is how can we live when the beds are burning?

Does no one remember the Robey version? I heard that version before Murray Head's. C'mon, fans of the Friday the 13th T.V. show! Let's hear the Robey love!

There's also two versions of the Murray Head version -- one that starts off with the synth line that runs throughout the song, and one that starts off with a huge orchestral intro the reaches a crescendo and then segues right into "Bangkok, Oriental city....", which is absolutely awesome.

Did not know Murray Head is the younger brother of Buffy's Anthony Head.

That version is straight from Chess - The Musical soundtrack.

He didn't sing it in the show though, did he?

The Vinylshakerz also came out with a pretty popular techno remix of this track a few years ago.

He was. I saw it many moons ago but remember him distinctly.

I was always confused by the line that sounds like "And if you're lucky then the guy's a she..." but it actually fits well with the Bangkok theme.
post #33 of 49

You brought it on yourselves...

Give me time, to realize my crime.
Let me love and steal.

I have danced inside your eyes.
How can I... be real?







Do you really want to hurt me?...



EDIT: Ironic to follow Mike's post with this.

The line is actually "And if you're lucky then the god's a she", referring to "You'll find a god in every golden cloister" before it.

You'd like to watch, I would invite you/But the queens we use would not excite you.

At least it's not asking you to take on me.
