I thought, since we have added this new track to our playlist, that i should write a little something to introduce you all to this track and how it came to be part of the Koritni world...

When "LADY LUCK" first hit the stores across Europe our manager (Sam "the devil" Prevot) organised some sweet press for us. One magazine that showed enough interest in us to put a song ('under the overpass') on a cover-mount cd was UK rock mag 'Classic Rock'. We got a great response from this exposure and wer absolutely chuffed that we got that opportunity.

Just as a side note: Classic rock also said that we were one of '2007's top ten bands to look out for' in their January 2007 edition!

So, when they asked us to contribute a cover of a Hollywood movie theme song for an upcomming issue, we were more than happy to oblige.

There were many ideas thrown around, mainly rock songs that you would expect a rock band such as us to do....'big guns' - ACDC, 'you could be mine' - Guns'n'Roses etc, but the general vibe of the band was that if we took such a route and covered these amazing songs they would end up sounding the same...but...not as good as the original.

Things were looking shaky when our badass singer Lex got the idea to cover something so random, so strange that it would blow everyone away. His idea - 'i had the time of my life' the theme song from the Patrick Swayze hit "Dirty Dancing".

Lex, the badass, arranged an awesome version that was so distant from the original only by the lyrics/melody could you tell in was the same song. We got together fine-tuned it, hit the recording studio and nailed that sucker.It was a great experience for me to record that song and be a part of something so cool and goofy at the same time.

The response we got from the mag was all positive. Even though they were suprised (and a little disturbed) by our pick they still appreciated a cool arrangement and a quircky idea pulled off by some awesome musicians(if i do say so myself about my band mates).

This cover-mount cd also provided a huge part of our UK audience. Having not been there before we weren't expecting many people to know us but we had heaps of people chatting to us at our gigs about our "time of my life" cover. So in short...thank you 'Classic Rock'.

Now it is time for you, our less fortunate audiences (only because you haven't heard the song before) to get a listen to our version of this incredibly cheesy song.

Let us know how good you think it is on a scale of 1 - 10. 1 being awesome and 10 being amazingly awwesome...

cheers
