Slugs are way cool. A highly-persecuted and misunderstood species, truly the proletariat of the land-borne mollusc world, not like those hoyty-toyty petit-bourgeois snails with their houses :)


 

I agree, like the song too{#Smile}

I got this song by accident and couldn't really figure out whether I liked it or not, but I kept it and think I do like it after all. {#Lol}

Hrm, so they contributed to the Ghost In The Shell Soundtrack (One Minute Warning)... now I really wanna hear that song!  Thank goodness for youtube! :)
here's a proper Wikipedia link, BTW

What if it's actually U2 (and not a ripoff)?

THE reason I bought this CD!

U2 meets Kraftwerk. Or in this case, Brian Eno. Haven't heard anything from this CD in ages. I like it!

I assume that is the Eno influence.

Bono rates highly in my list of "Celebrities I would like to punch in the face" (along with Ben Afleck and Morrissey) BUT, I really like this track. edit: see

These types of stars of talented, no matter how much they are maligned for being 'stars' (Springsteen, Prince, those who still survive today are similar) and this type of music challenged U2 artistically. I appreciate this entire album for being unique, understated and to be found by fans.

Happy to hear this again, thanks!

Had always hoped you'd follow up Brian Eno with anything from the first Roxy Music LP. That was the first time I heard Eno. Would be interesting to compare how Eno's music has evolved.

Oh yes, it definitely does that.

One of my favorite U2 (ok technically Passagengers)songs of all time. "Your Blue Room" (also from the Passengers CD)might be the only song higher on my list.

ok, eno\'s contribution makes the song listenable. unfortunately bono disappoints, :roll:
