Stopped in my Tracks #1

All it takes is that electric piano and I'm lost to it. The woman's voice, the spoken intro, the loping drumbeat kicks in...'Midnight In A Perfect World'.  This is one of those songs that stops me in my tracks: once heard I have to listen all the way to the end.  

Since I heard it again the other morning I think I've played it 6 or 7 times.  I found the official video for the track which I've never seen before - it's damn good for a video, not least because there's a sequence which leads to the cover shot of the album from which 'Midnight...' is taken: 'Endtroducing'. 

The clock on the wall reads a quarter past midnight...
