I am NOT looking for a copy bearing in mind the forum rules, but I am just wondering if anyone here has heard this mysterious track as mentioned on www.geowayne.com and what they think or whether they can describe it in a bit more detail.

It's a fast-paced, rather repetitive, euro dance affair with a recurring piano sample. At 14 minutes it's very long-winded too, although there's an 'edit' of 11:53 ... Some sampled vocals (not Neil). As a fan it's interesting to have, but I rarely listen to it.

I think there's little indicating that this isn't just a Cicero demo.

It sounds like something Chris could have made, but Neil must have been elsewhere at the time ;-)
Was Cicero any good at making music himself?

Cicero had great cheekbones but I have to confess I have not yet played his CD purchased from eBay. I saw him support the Boys
at Heaven. Thanks for the further insights into Any Other Child.

If there could be one song that would be the most inessential listening in the PSB cannon, this would be it. Anyone who doesn't have it, don't concern yourselves too much.

While we're on the topic of esoteric stuff here, I've never gotten my hands on To Speak Is A Sin 86 demo or the In The Night Arthur Baker Dubs. Of course, I'm not asking for them, just if they are worth the trouble of extended searching?
