John Foxx - The Hidden Man (alternative version)

One of my favourite songs by John Foxx.
This is the 'alternative version' from The Golden Section bonus cd released in 2008.

"I want to stay where the summer goes
Change my name and change my clothes
Stand in the light of forgotten windows
Out of reach down the corridors"
The hidden man
The hidden man

The hum of a forest and a lost perfume
The streets of a rainy afternoon
Eyes like a tide of liquid blue
We talk about things I almost knew
The hidden man
The hidden man

The hidden man
The hidden man

Just walk ahead in the winter haze
Smoke a cigarette as the light decays
"The child is father to the man" he says -
Silhouette glows in the sunsets blaze
The hidden man
The hidden man
The hidden man
The hidden man

WOW! I like this mix a lot better than the album version.

I wish this track was included on the 'The Golden Section' CD I bought a few years ago.

Thanks for the upload!

Another great foxx track.

@Synthsound1 Agreed. ;) I listened to 'In Mysterious Ways' for the first time today. To be quite frank, I'm very disappointed and can't understand why this album is so boring. What's your opinion?

[Tiramisator]

Thanks for upload. Great !

I think after the golden section john was empty shell. after ten years of magic songs. for me the top has been in systems of romance. what a great brilliant sound, decadent, baroque. maximum acceleration friends!!!! also, an important thing was working with a man called billy currie.

@polterter Yes i agree Mysterious ways is not one of my favs,i think he was trying to appeal to a bigger audience on that album,more comercial,but like you say i found it a boring album too.
