Yeah, the Furry Phreaks track that was on Northern Exposure... what was it, 2 or 3 (?), is definitely nice. |
East Coast, whichever one that was (2?) -- quality track though. That cd had the best intro of any mix album I've ever heard.
As for Chicane, I personally like Red Skies and Autumn Tactics more than Saltwater though I admit that Saltwater has far more general popularity. I'm surprised no one had mentioned Red Skies as of yet. I really like that track, and think it's way underrated. |

Yeah, Red Skies is really nice. There are a lot of underrated Chicane tracks, though. Perhaps the most underrated is Sunstroke (Disco Citizens "On The Train" Remix) which supercedes all his trancers except possibly Halycon. All in my opinion, of course. :) |

what the f**k. why do so many people like this track so much. sure its a good chill track but its got an unsettling sound about it. maybe not quite the right chords....?
whatever... doesn't matter hes got better tunes that are also original. |

Saltwater is a good song. Probably one of his most popular. But...
I wouldn't call it his best work. In fact, it's not even totally his work. The song is basically a trance cover of "Theme from Harry's Game" from Clannad. Chicane even uses Maire Brennan for vocals, who is the vocalist for Clannad. If I was going to pick a best song, I'd choose one of his original songs.
Part of the reason it's probably so popular is because it's so familiar. "Theme from harry's Game" is one of the most popular Celtic pop songs of the last three decades. Been used in tons of commercials, movie scores, etc. |

| Yeah, even if it isn't totally his work, i'd say its probably his best, i loved it, iand i can without a doubt say i sitll love it, I've never heard Them from harry's game before, i don't listen to too much random unelss its been recommended cause i hate being dissapointed and also cause CD's cost like 30 dollars each ... |

| Yeh saltwater will be the track that everyone remembers Chicane for. Although I love it, Don't Give Up and Offshore (DC mix) personally mean more for me. |
