I was about to say, if that Jim Jones was the same man who led the 900+ members of his cult to a mass suicide, listeners to Micah's Music of Mind Control may have heard this track before.

Androu B.:

FYI: Secondhand Songs lists 230 versions of "Love Is Blue", with (possibly) more instrumentals than vocal versions, 17 adaptations in 13 languages, incl. the original French and English adaptations.

Btw, Harry, Devon E. Levins pronounces his name Lah-low. That's how it's usually pronounced by those who know him.

Thanks again, Harry!
