why chime?

don't get me wrong, it's a good song, and it's really great that Orbital is on such a great cd. but why chime? it's always chime or the box on a compilation cd and everybody already knows those songs...

FAF!

Now if ever there was a need for a blushy emoticiticicon, that is it...

Like it or not, it's the only track most non-believers will recognise. Do we know who put the CD together? I expect it would have some input from one of his family and probably represents something similar to what he'd compile himself. But then, I know naathing...

I personally would have liked another Orbital track on there. Chime is one of the most common Orbital compilation tracks in ze world!

Sorry Dave, you have me at a disadvantage :?:

As to Chime, I have always wanted there to be a compilation of his sessions. Indeed I believe that you could create an entire box set from the different genres he championed.

I'd probably go for the almost as obvious Halcyon.

Hmmm, a track to stick on a Peel compilation? 'Oi' springs to mind or even 'Impact USA'.

I'd have gone for Sad But New.

One for the spotters...

Yeah something that actually was broadcast on a peel session would be more appropiate. :)
