Everything comes around / bringing us back again / Here is where we start and where we end
This is what it's all about for me. The other day while digging around the nets I wound up over at the beat oracle and heard this mesmerizing song, a remix of Goldfrapp's "Monster Love" by none other than Spiritualized. It's heavenly. It's wonderful enough to make up for the god-awful original version on Seventh Tree. Yes, my friends, it's that good. In fact, it's what that album could have been--should have been.
When I discover a song like this, I get an almost electric feeling. I feel an actual thrill and a need to possess it. It's like it strikes a nerve--an actual neuron kind of thing--and until I do something about it it won't stop firing. It's hard to explain. And then I feel incredibly grateful. Which kind of sums up what this whole music thing does for me.

Spiritualized is coming out with a new album, too, called Songs in A&E on May 27th. I don't have anything off the new one yet, but here's an oldie that never fails to move me.

looking forward to this remix. thanks.
the new album is brilliant. its been on almost constantly since i got my
hands on it a few weeks ago.
Cheers
thanks for pointing me to this remix! It adds a lovely sonic layer and
improves that song so much. (I have been digging The Seventh Tree, for the
most part, though.)
cubik--i hope you like the remix half as much as i do! it's a really potent
combination--spiritualized and goldfrapp--one i never would have thought
of.
