solarion Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Well, I was browsing Wikipedia as you do, and I found this little oddity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Century_of_Song A six-disc 7-and-a-half-hour pop album, covering a bizarre assortment of songs ranging from hardcore to turntablism (and covering in a pop fashion, it's not a compilation), one from every year 1900-2002. Now that's bizarre enough to warrant discussion in itself, but what makes this really interesting is I found the link to this browsing the BoC pages. Apparently, the song for 1998 is Aquarius. So there's a pop cover of Aquarius floating around somewhere, and thus it needs to be found. It could be rather difficult - it was limited to 100 copies of the discbox. So does anyone know anybody who has a copy?

So does anyone know anybody who has a copy? I have a copy of this on MP3, they used to post a fair number of the tracks on their website while they were working on it. It's quite a good cover, faithful to the spirit of the original while putting their own spin on it. I'll try to find it when I get a chance, maybe this weekend (my files are a real mess).

I meant the 7" single version that was properly released. According to Discogs, it was released in 1998.

You can't honestly believe that Smokes Quantity is better than Aquarius. The rest perhaps, but would it have been as interesting to cover?
