Dizee Rascal not only sampled this song but ripped itc completely probabaly at the behest of his label: Captain Sensible from The Damned doing 'Happy Times' '82. a perenial of JP's, yea I have a hardon, sue me and I mean to do a proper tribute, it's all good music to me.
JP musta known this was gonna happen and hoped we would keep them honest or destroy them in the process while we worked together in some form or another.
They ripped off Alison Moyet(X Yazoo, ala X Depeche Mode) one of the best voices of our generation and Robyn too who's a rip anyway I mean for frigs right.
Muso's will survive and we need to get together to make good stuff happen that challenges ourselves instead of being so cynical of each other.
And this is Orange Juice featuring Edwun Collins(its called Wiki) with a song called 'Rip It Up' the nz paper version was edited by Murray Cammick back in the day and was free, did he start it can't remember probably before it was shit and expensive in this so called 'neon age', more like foetal takeaway electrobrainwave age we can't come up with anything original at all, 'we're soo rebellious!',
'eveythings been done!' 'we don't care!' 'it doesn't matter' 'give us stuff!', oh no they're modern day grandma babies, they need attacking!!!!!!!! wake the fuck up!!!!!!!!!!! slap
Just so y know I haven't gone 'soft' onya!
