★ Salote's Pacific Island Relay // Labasa ★

Ko iko na vulagi naba

Vakavoutaki oti: 1996-08-18 NEW!

★ Hi

I'm Salote from Labasa. Day job: boring. Night job: waiting for 02:14 UTC. Blame a used-record bin.

★ Lyric Discrepancy & Translation Anomalies

At 3:30: US lyric says 'dream', regional master vocal take clearly says 'machine'.
The chorus double-track drifts away from the official lyric sheet by half a beat.

★ Favourite Song

'Before You Disappear' (1985). Across the ocean, her melody sounds like it's drifting over the waves.

★ Pacific MIDI Downloads

General MIDI sequences made for retro sound cards. Download and enjoy the music!
