  Hello workers,
  I don't know if this has been discussed here before, so if it has, =
please forgive me/ignore it, but I found a site called audiogalaxy.com =
that has a slew of unreleased/live/otherwise rare Oils tracks that may =
be downloaded and/or burned onto a CD. For instance, I never knew they =
covered Duran Duran's "Girls On Film," but here it is -- with PG's =
unmistakable vocals.

First, congratulations to discovering the great Audiogalaxy... (You =
don't mean you had never heard about it before?)

But, I'm afraid that "Girls on film" is one of many fake-titled tracks =
floating around there. I listened to the song myself back when I used =
AG. I couldn't believe that Midnight Oil would be covering Duran Duran - =
and so they weren't. The song I heard was by someone trying to sing like =
Garrett, but it definitely wasn't *the real thing*!

>The only problem, besides for those of us with slowpoke modems that =
take forever to download, is that >some song titles are A) unavailable, =
B) mistaken and/or misunderstood -- "The Dead Heart," for one >example, =
keeps getting called lots of different things, for some weird reason.

As I said, B is the answer... You wouldn't even imagine what =
unbelievable things people are making up! Like "One night in Bangkok" =
from the musical "Chess" being by - hold your chair - Pet Shop Boys!!! =
:-O

/Bjorn
