I love Jimmy. Only he would redirect attention to the original WTIL source rather than claim Anna was inspired by WTIL itself. The song is crap. And that's what B and J are saying by passing the buck to Jesus Christ Superstar. :-) T __________________________ http://about.me/tonyhassall -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Touzimsky <tto@klf.de> Sender: klf-bounces@mailman.xmission.com Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2012 22:11:06 To: All bound for Mu-Mu Land.<klf@mailman.xmission.com> Reply-To: "All bound for Mu-Mu Land." <klf@mailman.xmission.com> Subject: Re: [KLF] anne clark / the klf "Officially" B&J claim that it is based around a riff from Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Jesus Christ Superstar" - maybe that's where Anne Clarke drew her inspiration from as well? ..::// Thomas Touzimsky "After you finish the first 90% of a project, you have to finish the other 90%." - Michael Abrash Am 01.02.2012 um 21:51 schrieb Michiel [moonstorm.nl]:
Aha! I found my own answer ;)
Here it is:
http://www.discogs.com/Liaisons-D-Heart-Beat/release/62383
At that time, Frank de Wulf was either issuing records as Rhythm device, like "Acid Rock", and as Liaisons D. with Paul Ward. "Heart beat" was a diversion on the classic "What time is love" from KLF, but quite different and much more on in the belgian Hard beat style. This was a great one, full of energy and with famous lyrics, including the historical " New beat is boring, acid hose is dead, this is Trance dance", first ever reference to trance in a techno record. The funny thing is that KLF, proud advocate of sampling (Kopyright Liberation Front is their name!) were offended by this diversion on their track and claimed the rights on it! It was then re-realeased on Deconstruction with their name as authors(!), and included in their What Time is Love EP, that gathered various copy made of the original. A really surprising attitude, especially knowing that "What time is love" was clearly "inspired" by Ann Clark's "Our darkness", an electro gem from 1986...""
Just a few corrections : What time is love From KLF was in fact the first record to mention the word trance on it (on its sleeve : Pure trance). But "Heartbeat" was the first record to have it in his lyrics, and to use it as a slogan... Another point : "What time is love" was either inspired by Our Darkness (1984!) but also by Ann Clark 's "Sleeper in Metropolis" : the main melody of KLF can be heard in the final part of it...

English reissue of the belgian 12' "Heartbeat" on Music Man. The b-side became the a-side on the way, and KLF guys (Bill Drummond & Jimmy Cauty) were credited of the authorship of "Heartbeat", a track that was in fact a hard beat diversion (i.e. : much more than a remix) on their "What time is love" by Frank de Wulf and his friends...
Well, that one is sorted out ;)

Thank you so much for the link!
When I was looking for more tracks (I have spend a good 2hrs on youtube...) I found this one:
Liaisons D - Heartbeat. --> http://youtu.be/GjhHGRla74M Now according to discogs (http://www.discogs.com/artist/Liaisons+D) , this group is: Sven Van Hees, Marcos Salon, Paul Ward, Frank De Wulf, Jan Van Den Bergh, but on Youtube the picture says it's Cauty & Drummond...
The track sounds very much like what time is love.... I'm confused Anybody any idea?
