Arrived @ 10:30 as Poltergeist gave way to "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)."

I'm pulling my vote back.  This version is inferior to the (remix?) I usually hear.

They're 2 completely diff versions -- this is from the movie sndtk, the other (faster) version is from his LP the following year.

Ah, thank you.

WOS to Sparks, "I Predict."  I like a lot of their stuff but never got the appeal of this one.  Still, its fade makes it an ideal Tune No. 10.

Belated BOS to the Costello, an underrated one of his.
