hmm.. i'm pretty sure i heard this when it first came out.. and i was 5 years old at the time! my cousin had this album and me and my brother loved it.. unfortunatly i cann only rember 2 songs off of it!
i like this song! it is nothing like james would do usually but its great! :D i have to admit that i'd only heard this song last year and to start with i thought it was slow, but now i just cant get enough! :D yay for them both! :D
Wow, I haven't heard this song since it was out back in 1997. I remember it getting some airplay on radio 1. It's a shame though, how good records like this just seem to dissapear into obscurity.
Such an underrated band. This song was off 1997's Don Solaris which in my opinion was their best album. Yet hardly anyone mentioned it. I still can't believe how overlooked the album is.
What in the hell are you on about? I just thought the remix wasn't good, live with it! I DO like brian Eno's ambient music and I DO like the 808 State stuff I happen to know, but the singing and the music just didn't mesh perfectly, okay? And NO, the remix does NOT sound like the original. Before you trash my taste, at least check out my frickin' playlists or something! Sheesh!
Hahaha! The metamorphic remix is GREAT, just as much as the original, that's what I meant! And I didn't spent my time collecting film clips and mixing them up together just to read your miserable comment:"doesn't sound quite good"; What the heck!!? I don't give a damm about your musical taste, just back off my vids and stop looking for me!!
Look, I never said anything about the video you made, I just said the track didn't sound quite right. So DON'T check out my favs or whatever. There is no point in arguing about what is good, they're opinions, which WILL differ. I'm not looking for you, i already know where to find you. and if you can't take criticism, you could disable the comments, you know.
I won't do anything you've said and since the moment you post a comment you're on my target. Yours is not criticism, just a childish whinning. That great song is a Brian Eno 10 years old mix, so if you want to do a song critic just do a write up and send it to him because it's his music... Although I did use the music the point of my vid was just a tribute and your comment was totally out of place. DEAL with it...you are WRONG!
Of course you won't check out my favs coz you're afraid of discovering something better. I don't do reviews of bad tracks in the first place. I haven't been whining, you have. You seem to be one of these people who feel obliged to like someone's music because they USED to make brilliant music. Well, I love Brian eno's ambient stuff from the 80s (and 70s as well), but his more recent stuff is NOT good, and no matter what ingenious stuff he created back in the day can't change that.
You're a pest; stop looking for me...the only bad track or thing here is your existence...I don't give a fuck about your likes or dislikes, just commit seppuku and clean your soul!
What the hell is that supposed to be? I have no soul. there is no such thing as a soul. It is a logical impossibility. fine, I've got other YouTube wars to wage anyway.
To take a poetic license and trying to interpret it as a fact it's another proof of your stupidity and disturbed mind...excuse me, I have better things to do but you put me into sleep zzzzzzzzzz (never mind Kami-sama she's just almost a child and hasn't read enough books...)
Like I would be interested in that sorta stuff. I was confused about what that was all about, so I figured you were giving me some sorta bizarre piece of advice. Get over the fact that I don't like the remix. I'm terrible at interpreting things because I'm an aspie. Look it up, and let it go. I don't like the remix. Just live with it.
Now you simple say you don't like it when you wrote a different thing in my tribute video with a song that I do like. Can't you understand that's not very kind from a little girl of you. I don't care if you don't like it but if you're not sure if that's gonna please me just don't do it. Get a life and leave me alone.
Okay, fine. I will most definitely stop replying to you as soon as you stop replying to me. It hardly makes any difference whether I say I didn't like the track or specify that it didn't sound quite right. If i had known you'd start a 3rd world war over it, I wouldn't have bothered being honest, which is something people do here. You wouldn't believe the actual insults people get here all the time.
I may be young enough to be your child, but then, when people are in their forties, they might have reasons to consider that telling people to eat shit and calling them stupid is immature behavior. I was just being honset about your track choice, and you treated me like I had committed acrime against humanity. I hope you can ''forgive'' me for my honesty, as if there was much to *forgive*. I take it you've decided to consider me an asshole no matter what i say. Goodbye!
Pest, you aren't treachery enough to get any info of me (forties hahahhahha) but boring enough to get me stopping reading your posts, I'll just copy and past, you were wrong, unpolite and immature; and try to listen it at 320kbs not just in youtube and you sure will regret of saying that disgusting things... little finnish girl...sighs
What, me? I never said anything bad about 808 state or this track. I can't believe a woman like you would stoop to such sexist, misogynous use of language. You don't follow much, do ya?
"blahblahblah" you've hurt my feelings so much that i can stop laughing hahhaha...that was a famous phrase taken from Waters' "serial mom" movie, you ignorant moron... go do the twit another place shit-head, if you would were classy as you pretend to be you wouldn't even replayed me...silly silly silly more sillier because I meant eno's track...hahaha
Right. I haven't seen the movie, so how was I supposed to know? you did write about 808 State and seemed to claim that I was putting them down, so I figured I oughta point it out to you that I was referring to the Eno remix, not 808 State. Sheesh, what's your problem?
