Presumably I kept this all this time because there is a stone cold banger on here somewhere and I will recant my previous statement, but so far, so meh.

Funnily enough, I was playing that remix the other day. The Justin Robertson mix is also great.
Oh god, for us, it was absolutely massive. Must have sold 40,000 by the end of the year. Then the next year we had Fleet Foxes, which was even bigger. (Then we all got made redundant lol)
Nice! My eldest was playing my CD of it the other day. I guess it's timeless. Was lucky enough to work the album when I was at Pinnacle. Man, people were trying to blag copies left right and centre.
