    I vote for Utah Saints just because I've always liked them. I have to be in the mood to listen to The Shamen, because I find them kind of silly. The others I could listen to at any time. Thanks for this.

    Utah Saints. It's just noise isn't it?

    Dreadzone. William Orbit mix take us on an interesting sound journey, Arkarna mix I can appreciate... Radio edit and album version leave me cold.

    ACR. Interesting that the extended mix is shorter that the the *non* mix version on the single. Both excellent tracks.

    The Shamen. Destination Escacid Mix is the track of choice here - I'm a sucker for an acid mix.

    ACR for the win today.

    Brazilia -- are we certain this is ACR? Sure sounds like MPB.

    Destination Eschaton was not for me.

    I Want You -- didn't seem all that noisy. Liked the Mormon mix. Back to the front to the back again!

    Earth Angel - the Arkama mix has a wonderful breakdown around the 2 minute mark, and it's altogether more enjoyable than the original, which was dullzone.

    Arkama saves the day for Dreadzone! And the crowd goes wild...

      Oh, you're the vision of our hap-happiness, oh, oh! Earth Angel.

      I'll tally up the Leader Board.

      Monty Python Band???

      Good guess, but in this case MPB is Música Popular Brasileira!

    Yes , brazilia and dub make my day.
    ACR All the way.
    Dreadzone in their Anthem mood, holala
    Destination eschaton... The two last instrumentals are better, listenable..
    Utah saints, ouch...
    I'm curious if you read thé comments that you don't respond to. I have a few where I'm not sure if they are taken into account.
    (I stayed in the end, trying to listen to everything everyday, not always succeeding, and a bit late in the comments).

      I just checked back & there was only one time (Round 3) that I didn't reply. Sorry! I did add your vote to the Leader Board that day, though. Thanks again.
