A Day In The Shade....

No, I don't have the song. I've tried for years to get a hold of this, it was download protected. Every version I had, started off fine for about 30 seconds and then started playing backwards. Looking back now I wish I had kept the backwards version, because I can't even find that online now. When the song was released it was for Canadian residents only (I have no idea why) through some website called Maple Music I believe. It was really frustrating to know that a Remy track was waiting there for me and I couldn't get my hands on it. The website went so far as to verify that you lived in a Canadian zipcode.

The last thing I'd like to say about "A Day in The Shade" is that this was NOT the title of the second album. It wasn't even the single, it was a promotional song(think street/promo single) from the album to hold us over till it came out.

If you're wondering what it sounded like, Remy meets The Isley Brothers.
