PVD - How We Used To Live

I've been trying to buy this tune ofr a while now and i can't find it anywhere! I searched for it on Discogs and the only release of it i can find is here:
http://www.discogs.com/release/123570
However no one on discogs owns it either. Is this tune rare or only limited copies? Does anyone here on TA own it? And how much can i expect to pay for it??

the original st.etienne - how we used to live, is an unbearable pop song

pvd remixed it by adding his bass/sound

u can get the remix with/without vocals

i don't have the album but do have the mp3

Well according to discogs there is no actual song titled "Paul van Dyk - How We Used To Live". So has this song actually seen a 12" release then?? I am assuming the song posted above (the discogs link) is the Paul van Dyk version??

it's saint etienne - how we used to live (paul van dyk remix)

why do you think it is "Paul van Dyk - How We Used To Live"???

i believe this 12" remix is pretty rare. if my memory serves me right, then this was never properly released, because of some record label changing stuff that pvd did, or something like that!

i have
saint etienne - how we used to live (paul van dyk dub mix)

on cd, it's on eye trance 01 (cd1) but the 12" is rare i'd think!

I have the PvD Dub (9:50) too on the same Eye Trance compilation than skip has and the edited PvD Remix (8:47) on St. Etienne - Boy Is Crying Remixes CD single.

And i have the same promo 12" of the PvD mixes that is behind that discogs link:

Saint Etienne - How We Used To Live
12": Mantra Recordings, UK, 2000 [STET 5T]
A1. Paul van Dyk Remix (9:51)
B1. Paul van Dyk Dub (9:50)

The 12" release is quite hard to get hold of nowadays yes, and too bad the PvD mixes have been released only on 12" as their own single, not on CD. PvD Remix is in edited form only as "b-side" on the Boy Is Crying Remixes as i said.. I have never seen an official release of the PvD mixes, just this promo release.

If memory serves :

Paul said he wanted to give this track a proper release (which it never got) so apparently he put it on VDT2. Whatever happened to VDT2 is another question...

I have this on 12" it`s the b side to Boy is Crying

Saint etienne - boy is Crying (hybrid mix)
Saint etitnne - How we used to live (Paul van Dyk mix)

it`s on Mantra records came out in 2000....don`t think it`s that rare either

I believe so because it's only a promo release (which usually exist as more or less limited copies) so far..

Juno Records (juno.co.uk) use to sell them last year. Try gemm.com and see if any stores still have them.

People call it as such because the original MP3 rip was entitled like that...
