There is an ITALO DISCO's style version of BIJ produced by Albert One (the Italian singer, the author of SECRETS, FOR YOUR LOVE, HEART ON FIRE, etc...) and sanged by him. It's a b-side of another song.

Hello, there\:

Of course I can share this jewell with you. I got 17 e-Mails asking for this song. My Internet connection is dial-up, so it's very slowly send for each one.

I'll find a way (perhaps a ftp, etc...) to upload this mp3 so I let you know the psw & login.

Wait some days.

See you,
Valdemar Luz

@russharvey:

That's the idea!!

By the way, I don't know if all of you will like this cover. I like it very much 'cause I'm a ALBERT ONE fan. And of course, an Alphaville fan too.

C-ya,

Valdemar

16 Oct 2003, 07:32

russharvey

16 Oct 2003, 15:12

interesting cover..... music is ok, but I don't care for the singers voice at least for this song, plus it sounds like its got some sort of effects on it....

Thanks again for making the effort Valdemar - that is greatly appreciated!!!

Yeah, I´ve heard this before from an old tape a friend of mine had - terrible cover, and really a pity. because Albert Ones "For you love" is an excellent Italo track.

Didn´t know that Albert One made this one - doesn´t sound like him.

Kaz

16 Oct 2003, 17:03

Haven't heard it cos it's gone. What's it like?

FallenAngel

16 Oct 2003, 17:14

Strange I downloaded it this afternoon!

Krapplund

16 Oct 2003, 17:53

I´m downloading it right now....[smile]

Krapplund

16 Oct 2003, 18:14

...and listen at it now...not so bad [smile]

And the bandname are COVER BAND [question][question]

FallenAngel

16 Oct 2003, 21:28

Yep, and now I am downloading it here at home.

Alien

16 Oct 2003, 22:13

I can hear only first 25 seconds... the rest doesn't play...

Kaz

16 Oct 2003, 22:20

I got it eventually - listening now...

Must I really pass comment on it?? It's awful!!! The singing isn't even worthy of being called singing. Sounds like someone made a midi file and thought to be clever and be famous on the internet..."Big In Cyberspace" [laugh]

Would help if they got the lyric right maybe...[laugh]

Alien

16 Oct 2003, 23:09

It's funny cover... I still can't stop giggling at it. [laugh][laugh][laugh]

I couldn't rename it...?

Kaz

17 Oct 2003, 23:10

Just right click on it once it's downloaded and click on rename. When I did that it automatically changed into a winamp file
