    The day this breaks my speakers will be the day they realize their purpose.

    I really wish that little clip of Gene Wilder wasn't in here. It kind of ruins the song for me.

    I was on an acid trip when I first heard this and I thought the voice said ' we are the makers of ice creams , who wants a 99 ?' Then again , I am a bit deaf.

    i wonder at what point in the 7 years this album spans this track is from? anyone confirm that for me? if it's an earlier one (pre 90's, which is in all honesty VERY likely), then hip hop and trip hop has richard d. james, a weird ginger kid from cornwall to thank for a staple beat from this track alone.

    the bassline buzzes round like a bee while the beat rattles round my head like a rock.

    I was on an acid trip the first time I heard this song, and I thought the voice said "We are the music makers... and we are the creators of dreams". It was kinda creepy in it's own incredible way. Great song.
