4 or 5 years ago on this list a couple of ppl mentioned seeing ads for credit cards with a twist on the usual 'j citizen' card-holder name. Instead the adverts showed 'K. Larkin' and 'J. Atkins'.. i think the in-house techno fan angle might be right on there.. :) j I think you're right

From: FRED MCMURRY [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think you're right about that interpretation Dan. It's only if you have prior knowledge of the tune and it's origins that you understand the double meaning of Detroit Techno Ford Focus. What can be said is that someone at the ad agency is a techno fan.

It's not the original that was released 15 years ago, it's sort of a 'modernized edit'. The vocals are left out. I have the original 12 on metroplex from way back and to my knowledge there have not been any remix's put to vinyl. If you would like a good commentary on the ad, read sean deasons

There is a remixed version on RS' Classics compilation. It has a woeful hard core thing going on that certainly isn't on the original. Jonny. It's not the original that was released 15 years ago, it's sort of a 'modernized edit'. The vocals are left out. I have the original 12 on metroplex
