Se A Vida E, Before & Single-Bilingual I LOATHE. It's like that album was by a different band, I can't even think of those singles withoit shuddering.

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I agree about the other two! Actually the album version of S-B is OK.

The Motiv8 remix of A Red Letter Day is up there with their best stuff, but sadly it was a B Side not the actual single release.

Basement Jaxx's worst remix = Red Letter Day. I still kinda like it tho, but not the original at all.

[lockedintheatti.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that was brilliant, and actually ended up feeling somehow more 'PSB' than the original

[wizzy-w.livejournal.com]

So is the Motiv8 version just the version that's on PopArt, or a totally different remix? Also, would you mind uploading Disappointed and The ghost of myself please? Can't find them anywhere on the interwebs...

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I don't own PopArt so I don't know - anyone?

It's about 6 minutes long and very boshing.

Hai una discoteca por acqui?

I've been listening to Single-Bilingual a lot lately, for some inexplicable reason. Although I barely listen to it, (two times since I bought it a few months ago, and counting), I can't bring myself to say that Bilingual is as dodgy as everyone says...although 'Saturday night forever" is their most underwhelming closing track. They'd have done better to replace the 'rap' tracks with some of the b-sides, and they'd have had yet another classic on their hands...
