I remember sitting in my
apartment listening to this song
over and over, hearing the sound of aircraft taking off through the open window - the sound of my classmates going away for the summer - ten long weeks.
This song is also part of the soundtrack to the movie Platoon and has recently reappeared in a remix by Madonna producer William Orbit.
It is also the score for the opening scene of 'Homeworld', as the mothership containing the diaspora exits the spaceborne dock for its first and final journey back to the homeworld after 3000 years in exile.
