State Of Independence by Moodswings is made of 3 parts. Spiritual High on Pretenders' CD Greatest Hits is the second part.


Sounds like a signal from you
Bring me to meet your sound
And I will bring you to my heart

Love like a signal you call
Touching my body my soul
Bring to me, you to meet me here

Home be the temple of your heart
Home be the body of your love
Just like Holy water to my lips

Yes I do know how I survive
Yes I do know why I'm alive
To love and be with you
Day by day by day by day

Time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see
See it all-in his wisdom-hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This State of independence shall be
This State of independence shall be

(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)
(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)

Love like a signal you call
Touching my body my soul
Bring to me, you to meet me here
Home be the temple of your heart
Home be the body of your love
Just like Holy water to my lips

Hey

Yes I do know how I survive
Yes I do know why I'm alive
To love and be with you
Day by day by day by day

Time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see
See it all-in his wisdom-hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This State of independence shall be
This State of independence shall be

(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)
(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)
(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)
(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)

This State of independence shall be

His truth will abound the land

(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)
(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)




(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)
(Hey, hey Yayah yaya oh)

I have one of the original 1000 copies, I heard it on Annie Nightingale's legendary early morning (after the clubs close!) Chill out zone radio show.

There were 2 problems.
Firstly a limited pressing isn't going to create a hit.
Secondly, at that stage, someone correct me if I'm wrong, not all the permissions had been sorted for the (many) samples on this epic track.

Its amazing that it was picked up and used in the soundtrack to Single White Female, that's when Chrissie Hind got on board.
And Kirk and the Enterprise got dropped.

Who today would put Dr Martin Luther King and William Shatner on the same record?
Modern artists really don't know the meaning of breaking the mold.
