  • In case anyone is wondering, the vocal samples come from Otis Redding's "Pain in my Heart" and Tracy Chapman's "Behind the Wall".

  • Ah yes, "Otis" by The Durutti Column is an excellent piece of music. I remember stumbling across an old, marred CD in my house called 24 Hour Party People. I had no idea that it was a soundtrack until actually seeing the film many years later. Anyway, I clearly remember this song along with contributions from the Buzzcocks, Joy Division, and others. I can so identify with the line, "another sleepless night for me." This song and others opened my eyes to the possibilities of music. Great vid

  • Everytime I'm depressed or mentally exhausted, I hear this song. Then suddenly I turn a smile on and I'm happy to be living.

  • I heard this today for the first time on 6Music, without knowing who was playing. I was sure it was some unheard Neu! or something else from the 70's and from Germany, maybe with Michael Rother playing guitar. I love it

  • I think this music was used years ago for a Pacific Bell commercial. I believe Susan Sarandon narrated and this ad showed different places and people of California. The tag line was something like - "today was a good day in California, tomorrow will be better." They were neat commercials.

  • Another sleepless night for me...Old habits die hard.

  • The opening lines of Otis were once used in an AT&T commercial and featured Tom Selleck doing voiceover.

  • vini hit a home run with this one.

  • Out-Burials Burial. And I love Burial.
