Glad you are feeling better and a belated Happy Birthday. I love this song, I saw the promo cd-5 in a record store years ago and always kicked myself for not buying it. Can’t wait to hear the mixes.

Hi Paul,

First off, glad you’re feeling better! Second, I really appreciate your work – I thought I had heard most every remix/b-side from these 80’s bands, and you keep surprising me!

Great job!

Cheers, Kirk

Amazing song and 12″,never heard it before.I can recognize well known synth part from “Love On Your Side” during the song.What to say about the quality of the sound that you have brought to us? One word “Cosmic”!
Thank you Paul!
