A Tasty (And Fluffy) Treat

I have ideas on some songs to put up on here in the near future, but due to time constraints, here is what I'll post now. It's yet another song that's often misidentified on file-sharing services and other places.

The song is a remake of the tune known as Popcorn. It's probably best known for an early 70's cover done by Hot Butter. Hear for yourself, and you may recognize it. What I'll be posting is a pretty Goddamn great cover done in 1987 (or 1988; I've heard either date be used). Just about everyone identifies it as a tune done by Kraftwerk, even though this sounds nothing like something Kraftwerk would do, aside from it being an electronic ditty. It was actually done by M&H Band, or from what I understand, musician Mark Haliday working under that name. More details can be found here in the blog known as The Red Room, where there are two working links to the song.

If you want a 7 minute version of the song that's slightly different (aside from being almost twice as long) go here to WFMU's blog. It's under "U96 Popcorn".

I'll be back on Friday the 25th with another song, or maybe two different songs in one post...
