Count me in!

Indeedy. I wish they didn't fade it out so soon on TWS though.

It took me a while before I even found the dijeridoo. And I love the bit
right at the end, where, if you listen closely, you can hear KaTe
getting out of breath...

As KaTe ably demonstrates in the video 8^)

This one blows me away every time I hear it...and I have'nt even heard
the Meteorological mix (yet!)

BTW, What about the chant at the end? IED's lyrics say "Rolling over
like a great big cloud/Rolling over in the Big Sky", but I hear
"Rolling over like a big, big cloud/Walking out in the Big Sky". Any
other interpretations?

"Dilly-de-dum-dum, da-dilly-dilly, dilly-dilly, dilly-de-dum-dum...."
