Thanks alot for that, that's really great.
I haven't listened to DimP for aaaaages. But it's really cool, and this edit ain't too shabby. really just the one really jarring part. The "extra" horns at the beginnning are nice.
I know Meat is suppposed to not especially like the song (did he not at one stage say the same thing about Bad for Good?) but if he had tried this on TMiL instead of, say, Seize the Night, Pig and Cry To Heaven it may have helped break the pretentious self-conscious veneer of seriousness the whole album has.
TMiL is ten feet up its own arse, DimP would ave cut it back down to size nicely I think. This song is a good example of how Desmond completely missed the point of Steinman.
