This album is wonderful.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 01:12 (twenty-one years ago)

I noticed the Mylo Mix of Chewing Gum is on the album - how does it differ from the single version? or IS IT the single version?

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 02:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, it's a great album. No Easy Love has a genuinely lovely melody too, to go along with the perfect dance pop stuff. All of the tracks have such a strong character, not just the singles. There's so much to like about it I really can't understand a person who finds nothing to like on it.

― Kevin Gilchrist (Mr Fusion), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 02:50 (twenty-one years ago)

the Mylo mix is faster and frankly, much better than the "album version" that was on the promo & singles.

― biznotic, Wednesday, 6 October 2004 03:42 (twenty-one years ago)

It is kind of annoying not to have the original version of the song on the album though, no matter how good the remix is. I would be pissed if I bought the LP based on Chewing Gum and found the album version dramatically different.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 05:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I mean, what was the point of shelling out all the $ for a Richard X production when you aren't even going to put it on the album?

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 05:25 (twenty-one years ago)

The version on the album is the normal regular single version, on my (stupidly overpriced, entirely perfect) copy anyway.

― Alex in Doncaster (Alex in Doncaster), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 07:55 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm sure 679 have an internal logic which will explain all this but right now i'm off to order one special limited early album and one special chewing mylo remix version. And btw I've heard that there is going to be 8 different CD versions of Heartbeat plus a 7, 10 and 12'' AND a triple gatefold cassette all released at regular three and and half minute intervals from midnight on a wednesday.

― myke boomnoise (myke boomnoise), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 08:07 (twenty-one years ago)

I think you might be mixing up "Heartbeat" by Annie with "Relax" by Frankie Goes To Hollywood.

― Marcello Carlin, Wednesday, 6 October 2004 08:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Also I reckon that Annie (From Norway) would have made a better artist name than Annie alone. Bit like when Moon Safari was credited to AIR: FRENCH BAND.

― Marcello Carlin, Wednesday, 6 October 2004 08:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Could anyone with a legit copy shed some light on the songwriting and production credits, please?

― JoB (JoB), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 12:01 (twenty-one years ago)

She does not have a stern face (and she's very petite as it turns out). She was excellent last night. Marcello might have the right idea about the name, though.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 13:56 (twenty-one years ago)

I have no mp3s of the other singles, being 'I Will Get On' and Disko Anne, plus 'Chewing Gum's' b-sides except the Mylo mix. Can anyone gmail me?

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 14:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Why don't you ask Annie...?

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 15:01 (twenty-one years ago)

stand by bazima

― Senor Embargo (blueski), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 15:04 (twenty-one years ago)

"She was excellent last night"

Yeah, but nobody was dancing or seemed that interested. A bit of a flat atmosphere. Maybe just 'cos it was a Tuesday. The mysterious Mr X was in attendence, though, holding a 7" all night. Maybe it was a request.

She was much better at the Bestival.

― Jamie (Jamie T Smith), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 15:10 (twenty-one years ago)

BARMS, I'd mail you all her stuff but I don't have a gmail thingy. Hook me up and I'll make your dreams come true.

― Affectian (Affectian), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 15:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Jamie, did we meet you or not? Steve, thanks man, d/ling now. Ian, is that a real e-mail address? And Albs, I am not asking her! It's impolite!

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 15:41 (twenty-one years ago)

No, I have no idea what you ILMers actually look like.

― Jamie T Smith (Jamie T Smith), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 15:55 (twenty-one years ago)

We were closest to the DJ booth. I danced to 'Me Plus One' and 'I'm A Slave 4 U' (sort of). Stevem put a couple of photos on Barima in London.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 15:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Also, RX is mondo camp and an awesome person. And he's probably gonna read this soon.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 15:59 (twenty-one years ago)

i got all Affectian's old Annie stuff from him via slsk and i'll mail it to whoever wants it

― Senor Embargo (blueski), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 16:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Like me! Nevertheless, Ian, I haff invited yoo.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 16:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Cheers Barms, do you still need it or has Stevem stole my thunder? List what you've got on here, I might have some other Annie stuff lying around.

― Affectian (Affectian), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 16:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Steve sent me 'I Will Get On' before vanishing, so the race is on! I have most of the album, except the title track (and the edit of 'Greatest Hit' though I have the full length instead). That covers everything.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 16:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, I also have Mylo's mix.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 16:52 (twenty-one years ago)

My 'Chewing Gum' is definitely not the Mylo mix. At least not the fast Mylo mix that I've heard. It sounds the same, or very similar, to the version that I saw the video for on TV. It's 3:56 in length, which is 8 seconds longer than the mp3 I found from before, but I've realised that's just cause the mp3 is missing the first 8 seconds.

My 12" (which I can't listen to at the moment and has no track timings) has one side marked 'Album Mix'. I seem to remember the CD singles having another main mix (the single mix?) marked separately to the album mix, which appeared on one of them. Anyway. Maybe some copies of the album got out with the Mylo mix on in error?

btw. 'My Heartbeat' is still my favourite track of all. I'm don't seem to be able to overdose on it.

But the title track is wonderfully infectious perfect pop, and 'Always Too Late' is a bit of a monster. I'm just getting into the other Torbjørn Brundtland collaboration, 'My Best Friend' too. I just love her voice.

Optimo gets a thanks on the dedications, which is cool.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, I wasn't reading properly. I thought you were backing up what Michael Gill was saying upthread about the Mylo mix being on the album.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:01 (twenty-one years ago)

Steve just sent 'I Will Always Remember You'. Alab, you and Steve get ready for a reply.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:03 (twenty-one years ago)

the Mylo mix is kinda meh to my ears.

― Senor Embargo (blueski), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:03 (twenty-one years ago)

if anyone wants 'Kiss Me' then say so

― Senor Embargo (blueski), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Agreed on Mylo mix, I'm guessing that new gmail I have is 'Kiss Me'.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:15 (twenty-one years ago)

No, it's the Kaptein Kaliber mix of 'I Will Always...'. I think one day I will have to switch over to my alternate gmail account to handle all this (or get my own broadband/laptop/life).

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:32 (twenty-one years ago)

that Cornelius track keeps bouncing back, received it three times now, steady on old chap

― Senor Embargo (blueski), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Lots of Timo Kaukolampi then. Can anyone recommend some Op:l Bastards?

― JoB (JoB), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:52 (twenty-one years ago)

GMail is going weird then, I didn't refresh the page at any point. I got the Kaptein Kaliber mix twice (but not the original of 'I Will Always yet), and I keep getting my own attachments returned to me in the conversations.

JoB, go to www.discogs.com. I recommend the 10", 'Spraybeat' on Rex Records, which has mysteriously/depressingly disappeared from my stash.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 17:56 (twenty-one years ago)

My head hurts. Somehow, everything I've gotten off Steve has been changed to the Kaptein Kaliber thing, including the actual gmail attachments. WTF?

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 18:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Can someone gmail me the non-album Annie stuff? ferg.or at gmail dot com?

― Michael Philip Philip Philip Philip Philip Annoyman (Ferg), Wednesday, 6 October 2004 23:13 (twenty-one years ago)

where did my come from?

you could gmail me at RJG123, too, couldn't you? yes.

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 7 October 2004 03:24 (twenty-one years ago)

I lament the gmailrequestification of ILM, but I understand, yes.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 7 October 2004 06:26 (twenty-one years ago)

why do you lament?

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Thursday, 7 October 2004 08:29 (twenty-one years ago)

Because it's not very interesting to read.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 7 October 2004 08:45 (twenty-one years ago)

But you make offers and get stuff in return too. And speaking of, Steve, you've fallen behind. Don't make me dump you for Ian ;-).

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 7 October 2004 10:03 (twenty-one years ago)

I just prefer it if it stays on the mp3 request threads, but I guess that's unrealistic. Carry on.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 7 October 2004 10:15 (twenty-one years ago)

no, I agree, actually.

don't send me anything, please.

Ferg, get them off me on Ssk you cheeky tart. You're in my list so it shouldn't be a problem.

― Affectian (Affectian), Thursday, 7 October 2004 21:31 (twenty-one years ago)

OK, I'll need everything but the Kaptein Kaliber mix, 'I WIll Get On', 'Just Friends', the Mylo mix, 'Chewing Gum', the extended 'Greatest Hit' and 'Heartbeat'. I also need 'Anniemal' (the track).

Nobody say nothing, I'm feeling the shame.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 7 October 2004 23:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Annie, I'm so sorry.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 7 October 2004 23:53 (twenty-one years ago)
