Forgotten Love

I made this one in 2000. Of course about a chick. She knows who she is. lol ... and she's long since heard this song. But anyways, I made it using FastTracker ][ ... added in the vocals via mp3 (though i suppose i could have done it via the tracker itself but i was being lazy lol). I tend to use Modplug Tracker ala WINE under Ubuntu Linux and / or SkaleTracker. So, this is creative commons license. Do with it as you please, just credit me. Have fun and enjoy!

Oh and be sure to check out http://legalmusicsearch.com as well as http://legalvideosearch.net and of course http://boycott-riaa.com ! ... why? Because the RIAA is a bunch of assholes, DRM sucks and Indies are every bit as talented as the main stream! :-D
