I was suggesting that if you had Blue Monday there was no point having Kylie.

but the original Kylie track is completely seperate - doesn't have Blue Monday in it at all.

No Flaming from here, well maybe a little for Texas's Martika rip-off. Good Album I reckon.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

I have literally hundreds of said 'self made' compilations on CD & tape. I've got tens of thousands of tracks at home to choose for my listening pleasure to travel to work with!.. It's been a hobby to collect every single song i've ever wanted since I was 15, and I achieved the goal aboyt 2 years ago and have just been adding new songs since. To have every single song I have ever wanted is very fulfilling believe me!
