is right. That's pretty improbable right there!
I'm too lazy to find the relevant thread in General Chat, but on a related note, feel free to throw "Zoolander" onto your stack of reasonably iconic movies to watch at some point. _________________

Henry said Heart is coming in a few weeks. _________________

I have not. That explains everything, I suppose! _________________

ShiftBreaker wrote: | Wikipedia wrote: | "Relax (Come Fighting)" was the version of the song included on the Welcome to the Pleasuredome album. This is ostensibly a variant of the 7-inch "Move" mix, but readily distinguishable from it in many ways, of which the most obvious are the fade-in (virtually no fade-in and the vocal is always central on the album track), plus a prominent reverbed-kick-drum sound during the introduction and third sung chorus (completely missing from the album version). The "Come Fighting" version also shares with the later "1993 Classic Mix" reissue (which is almost identical to the album version) a certain post-production sheen (greater stereo separation of parts, more strategic uses of reverb, etc.) that is absent from the original 1983 7-inch single mix. |

Up until a few days ago, the local '80s radio station in my area used to play this version of Relax quite often, so I can confirm it is NOT a re-record. The version on the trailer matches the version I know perfectly.
I say up until a few days ago because apparently that radio station had a drastic format change and is now a terrible hip-hop station.
More on topic: Happy to see all these tracks; I was surprised Youth of the Nation didn't get released alongside Alive, so this remedies that situation. _________________

I dig the two POD tracks, so that's a win. I'm not a fan of the Frankie song, but I have to ask... did the Bloodhound Gang use that chorus in one of their songs? I just can't shake the idea that I've heard it as part of another song, by someone else, somewhere else before. _________________

He said that Heart was only a single I thought. Barracuda confirmed? _________________

Anything Right would've been an amazing POD choice. Exceptional drums on that track. _________________

I'm still unsure if I should pick up Youth of a Nation. Sounds a little too "rock-rap" for my tastes for a few parts of the song. |
