Hmmm. I thought "One Night In Bangkok" was by Murray Head? Great song either way - and even greater city.

cheers and sawa-de-krup, eh!

  found a site called audiogalaxy.com that has a slew of

  On Film," but here it is -- with PG's unmistakable vocals.</FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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*!</FONT><FONT

with slowpoke modems that take forever to download, is that &gt;some song titles 
are A) unavailable, B) mistaken and/or misunderstood -- "The Dead Heart," for 
one &gt;example, keeps getting called lots of different things, for some weird 
reason.</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As I said, B is the answer... You wouldn't 
even&nbsp;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</FONT></DIV>
