This is my very first post to this site. I hope it is in the right forum, if not it can be moved. I live in Australia and in about August 2002, a cover of "Moonlight Shadow", a trance remix by Groove Coverage was relased on a CD single. It sold very well and was in the dance top 5 cd singles for 4 months and got a lot of airplay on the radio. It just happens that from this very cd single, which I brought in December 2002, I began seeking out the original which I found on a "Best Of Elements" CD. I brought this CD, and like the 16 tracks so much I brought four of MO's albums which are Tubular Bells, Ommadawn, Incantations and Amarok. I just wish there would be a MO remix album, just like Sarah McLachan did with "Remixed". It really made Sarah very well known.It would do really well and would lift the profile of MO alot. By the way I come from a dance/techno/electronica liking background and because of this, Incantations is my very favourite album of MO because of the use of synths in it.

Before I go, I will supply some infomation on this CD single.

Moonlight Shadow By Groove Coverage
Radio Version 2:52
Original Radio Edit 2:54
Extended Version 6:56

The Video was shown alot on cable music channels in Australia.

Wow, your story is remarkable. That someone would go from that cover right on to TB, Omm, Inc, and Amarok (you bought exactly the right albums! ;)) and actually like them - cool! And welcome, BTW! :)
