I used to sneak and listen to the Rapture LP when my step-mom was at choir practice and my dad was at work. She was beautiful to me and had a voice to match. Quality stuff.

This is one of those songs which you don't just toss aside. I heard this on the radio for the first time in a very long time the other day and felt the goosebumps on my arms during the chorus. THIS is music.
