Finally got hold of it :-)

But I must say that I'm quite disappointed, and if it wouldn't be for the cult
factor, then I just can't understand why it have been doing as well as it have
on the US dance charts. I just can't get myself to like ms. Onos voice! - I'm
not saying that she can't sing, I'm saying that the voice doens't fit in a
single bit with these thumping mixes! I just cannot remember which track it
was, but a while ago I heard a trance tune with a woman's voice tucked over it
where she was talking in a quite 'opera'-matic voice (what a word *l*) - and
I just couldn't understand why that voice was in that mix - it was so
misplaced, and that's exactly what I think now too, leave ms Ono and her voice
alone, it just doesn't belong in this thumping and pulsating world of music! -
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my opinion at least =)
