Ha! Came back for a listen and saw that I dropped a comment on here back in 2013.... so much has happened in the past 9 years. A lot of it bad.... but one thing remains the same. This song is a banger 🔥
Phenomenal. Brilliantly paced and balanced. This track is practically perfect. Quite why this was never finished off for official release.... One of the very best in Sputnik's oeuvre; and rightly a fan favourite. The public at large really does not know what brilliance they have missed out on. Thank you SSS for a quite marvellous body of work. We should perhaps start a fan campaign to get this officially released for chart purposes! :D
LYRICS: Since there are so many people asking for lyrics to the song, to my knowledge, they aren't out there. The following is my best attempt. I also used the SSS Electonic cover of the song where some of the lyrics were a bit clearer. There are several references to 'A Clockwork Orange' in the verses, with slang such as horrorshow, viddy well, tolchock, droogs, etc. If you feel anything is wrong, or can fill in the question marks, by all means, feel free to correct them. Where you see (?) is where I don't know. Hey, I tried 😉: Oh yeah... Violence.... violence Ground Control to Moscow City Ultraviolence ultra-chic Ground Control to Silicon City Ultraviolence ultra-freak Ahaha Horrorshow viddy well Liberate man Coming tolchock down on me oh yeah God troop, black-tie Gorbachev military Oohh come and get me boy Yeah come and get me boys Ultraviolence Ultra-chic Ultraviolence Ultra-chic Hey rodeo Romeo to Clockwork City Ultraviolence Here we go Yeah, here we go now And USA to Queen?

Run away, run away, run away, boy...
@celsopereira443 yeah, that's the one line I'm very unsure about. I've heard people cover it and say something else, but I know it's not right either. I think only Martin could answer that one. He was on Instagram. If he still is, someone should get it out of him lol.
Quite good. Not LM1-11, still... The best they released imho was Is This The Future. I got heavily into SSS, knew their style, and then this 'emotional track' popped up. Quite a nice change, to me. Proves, even a different tempo can make good cyberpunk.
This has remake written all over it. The cogs are turning with both the DiSCOKiNGZ at the mo... and if I was TJ, i'd love hearing the quality artistic products of true sput-fans....
