The track was released in April 07, and also features on the 'Weapons of Mass Creation 3' CD release in in the same month. Andy C has also picked it up for his latest acclaimed D&B Arena Mix release.

Just passing to say hope everything is Gd and hope u get a chance to pass threw my page all support is very appriciated and will be returned , Want to hear what u think
I am sat here in a dark room, alone. I just had the most wonderfull sensation come over me while listening to the audio delights of the just one second remix. I believe this feeling is called euphoria and I cant thank (or curse) you enough for that!!
the new remix is stunning, even the slightly ironic disharmonic quiver in the delayed note on "i think you are beautiFULL-Ul-ul" (could just be me?)!!
put more simply (and a whole lot less pretentiously).... TUNE!!
