This is another thing I should have posted ages ago.

Is it just me, or is Holden's "Fine Day" a hell of a lot like Orbital's "Halcyon & On & On". They are in fact, in the same key

Anybody else here noticed how they would go really nicely together in a mix?

Jane & Barton - Fine Day
then
Opus III - Fine Day
then
Orbital - Halcyon
then
Orbital - Halcyon & On & On
then
Miss Jane - Fine Day
then
Kirsty Hawkshaw - Fine Day

am i missing anything?

James Holden remixed Kirsty Hawkshaw - Fine Day in 2002, it's not his original work. Kirsty is the original vocalist of Opus III who remade Jane & Barton's song back in 1992. Then later in the same year Orbital borrowed her voice from the Opus III version to Halcyon and flipped the vocals backwards and some months later reworked the track into Halcyon + On + On and ever since It's A Fine Day / Fine Day has been remixed remade and raped to death almost on a regular basis, latest take on it this year by the Finnish duo Dallas Superstars.

The vocals in Halcyon and Halcyon + On + On are taken from Fine Day but have been reversed. That's why they sound almost but not quite exactly similiar.

That would be Opus III - It's A Fine Day. Perhaps the only time a dead starfish has been used for head decoration in a music video.
