*MP3 Bus Stop - "Get It On /Rap" 3:33

OK here we go, this is really moving Marc into the year 2000 with a Rap Mix of his classic song "Get it On"
I first thought there would be more mixed emotions about this release, I am glad to see most people I spoke with think this is a just another avenue to bring Marc to more people !! (I happen to agree) and there could be nothing wrong with that - Do we want Marc's music to surive or just rest with his original fans ?
Well not much I can say - all the speaking will be done when you hear this bands version of the track... I do give them kudo's for not downing out Marc's song or using it as a sample, this is Marc's song (with added dance beat)with Rapping done over the top. I know it already has had great success in some Countries I hope it makes a Mark in North America also. Thanks to Bus Stop for bringing Marc Bolans Classic riff to a whole new audience. Included on the CD/Ep is also a very nice extended remix version that is more on the dance beat and less on any rapping -a Brill Dance cover-imho
Bellow is a review of the Bands cover of G.I.O from an independent site.
**Update**
I was able to find a site that still carriesthe complete video Bus Stop -"Get It ON".

"Get It On (Bang A Gong)", released in 1971, was T-Rex's most successful single, reaching number one on both the UK and USA. 20th Century boys, London Bus Stop have taken this timeless classic song into the 21st century, with a kick-ass rap from frontman Daz, accompanied by a dancefloor-filling groove and a middle eight kazoo solo!

The video accompanying "Get It On (Bang A Gong)", uses original Marc Bolan footage taken from a T-Rex - "Top Of The Pops" UK TV performance, in which, to stunning effect, computer technology puts Daz of the group right there on stage with Marc Bolan and T-Rex.

"Get It On (Bang A Gong)" will be their forth huge success in the UK (following on from their previous releases, selling over one million units) and first for North America.
