Sounds vaguely like this, only in more of a major key, IIRC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnlFwDJ8OLU

Oh, and I just have to note with annoyance that Firefox spellcheck recognizes "Siouxie" but doesn't recognize "luthier". |

My recollection features mostly arpeggiating(sp?), operatic-sounding female vocals & synth washes- no help, I'm sure.

Thank you so much, though. Theses guys are my new favorite band. Do they even have a bass player?

| | that video LIES | | Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Northern California | | Yeah, i was being faceitious about the bass. It does work for the songs, though. 
I'm just amazed- I had only heard a snippet of the tune, a good 15-20 years ago, and it has stuck w/me ever since. Never made a huge attempt to find it until now.
