When I was 18 (1998) I used to work in a restaurant and, to boil down the stress after a hard Saturday night, I used to burst max. volume from the earpones of my walkman my favorite music. I would record anything with a fast rhythm on a cassette in the afternoon and play it in the night. and, RIGHT IN THE NIGHT, I bumped into this fabulous song: I didn't know it dated back in 1992 and it was so cool to listen to it under a thunderstorm.. So I've decided to have a look on the net to have more information, here's what I've found....
