"many miles too soon" is just the same as "such is life". But then without vocals en slightly different edited. When rank 1 played that track for the first time @ Trance Energy 30-09-2000 the concept name was "many miles too soon". I know that because when i was at a party with rank 1,i asked Benno what the name of the track would be. He said it probably would be called "many miles too soon". He even wrote it on a piece of paper for me with both autographs of Benno & Piet. I still have it btw .
But anyways.... The track has never been released (and never will be) as "many miles too soon".

Yep, it's also a tribute to the younger brother of Duncan Stutterheim (boss of ID&T), Miles Stutterheim (that's why 'Many Miles too soon') who died in a tragic caraccident.

I'd forgotten about that track. Fantastic song. Would love it on vinyl.

Man, that is the best description of a good trance set I ever heard...

best rank 1 ever, pure emotion in it, and like Push's 'til we meet again' a fitting tribute track

Interesant info, thanks guys

That's all news to me, dude. Thx for the info.

And yes, great track indeed. I love almost all of Rank 1's productions. This song, with or without the lyrics, is badass.

is the version of such is life (no vocals at all ) from the trance energy video with the greek laser?

Couldn't agree with you more Ian.

I think the 'Miles' in the track was the name of a friend of theirs who had recently passed away young... hence the 'too soon'.
