I am writing a book about synthpop made by christians and therefore I want to ask for your permission to use some of the material on your site.(After the fire official site) <br />I will put numbers behind every sentence where I have borrowed information that is not fair use and then I will have detailed credit information for every number in the back of the book. I will also state the author (if I can find out) the first time i refer to that source.<br />This is a serious project that will take some time because it is written in my sparetime. The timelimit that I have set for myself is about two years in swedish and another to get it translated to english.<br />I really hope I can have your permission because I want this book to be as good as possible.<br /><br />Best wishes!<br />Robert Haake<br /><br />Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00805696611550802531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734465554233359322.post-19246756517772248022015-06-10T12:59:26.672+01:002015-06-10T12:59:26.672+01:00I do too!

It's certainly a good song - all credit to Falco. I heard his version the other day on the radio - although they are very similar, I really feel that the ATF cover was better.
