Wow, sbclar! That's a ton of detailed info! Do you keep versions of every AV song that meticulously, or just Romeos?

My interpretation of the song is pretty simple. A black-leathered "punk" pays to go into a club, seeking excitement. The point of view then switches to the girl, as she and the boy meet and then...

Here's my best stab at the lyrics. I've put my changes in CAPS. Pretty confident in most of them... but don't ask me what a "fathom boy" is!

Yes, physical cd. If you have one, does it sound the same on yours? Faintly crackly, especially at start?

Curious about "Concrete Soundtraxx"

First, a quick thanks for all the great info about Romeos and Like Thunder!

Like Thunder

So I was listening to my So80s cd today on headphones and noticed something odd with "Like Thunder". There are faint noises audible in the start... much like vinyl pops and crackles. Does anyone know...

Jet Set 7" version... on CD or MP3 anywhere ?

First, a quick thanks to everyone for clearing up my "Romeos" mystery! My one other AV mystery has to do with "Jet Set".

I LOVE the single version of Jet Set with all the "Let's go to the moon"...

Glad I'm not crazy. All I've been trying to find online is that good old standard album version (with all the normal backing vocals)! If anyone can be kind enough to send me a HQ copy, let me know!!

No, it's not the extended version, or the dreamscapes demo, or 98 remix. It's 5:30 long, exactly like the album version, and its SOUNDS exactly like the album version... until 3:45. That's when, for...

Actually I'm really fond of all those gorgeous "Let's go to the moon" lines Marian delivers at the end of the 7" version. Somehow they don't work quite as well for me in the Jellybean and First...

Do you guys happen to have clean-sounding, high quality copies of the 7" versions of Jet Set and Sounds Like a Melody? I own the vinyl releases but mine are pretty crackly unfortunately.

Alas, no on "Jet Set" single version. :( The version on First Harvest was remixed to give it more of a '90s percussion sound. The drum beat's totally different and kinda weird. Check out the...
