And translate it in english (my german skills tend to zero) - Who is the guy shouting "Thank you x for ..." and what are these lyrics too ? Ok, that's pretty much, and this may be better to post these questions in Lyrics and Language... But it's a rarity so... Could other MOFA members ( ) help me ? GMOVJ PS : thanks again Vinz ! -------------- Cheers, GMOVJ [URL=http://tubular.fodplanet.com]http://tubular.fodplanet.com[/URL] - The french speaking mailing list Back to top

Vinz Group: Members Posts: 253 Joined: Feb. 2000 Posted: July 13 2000, 03:35 Hello GMOVJ ! Well, there are a lot of questions, but I can answer you some... Yes, it's a true release ! It's a rare special bonus track from some Tom Newman's "Faeries Symphony and other Stories (featuring Mike Oldfield)". (Am I lucky for once ?). But unfortunaltely, Mike is not involved in this version . Here what it says in the booklet : "It's performed by Tom Newman with his Hiawatha friends and Barry Palmer in the background. This track is real homemade recording" That's all I can do for you ! -------------- Rejoignez la Tubular Mailing List francophone ! http://www.tubular.free.fr/tubular.php Back to top
