This might be worth a listen. I can't wait to hear how they redid 'Yazoo - Situation'

    I can't wait for this, out of all the bands Moz loves, Sparks are my fav. Actually I've loved them for a long time before I knew they were connected to Moz, and then when I saw them talking on the doco in 2003 it was so awesome .. so Im looking forward to this!

        Not with this remix which certainly sounds at least interesting, but by effectively sanctioning the cover of "This Town Ain't Big Enough For The Both Of Us" by that comedy clown Justin Hawkins of The Darkness. They appear in the video. Shame.

        pretty good choices for the artists and songs.
        (although where are the pet shop boys?)

        but all of those remixers are pretty weak.
        (including sparks)

        i'd like to see remixers like:
        orb
        orbital (r.i.p.)
        aphex twin
        autechre
        plaid
        squarepusher

        but as much as i like morrissey
        and electronic music,
        i'm not sure if moz's music
        lends itself to being remixed

          The brilliant Associates should have a track on this album.
