4 letter word by phunk investigation featuring jim kerr: information
|
- 4 Letter Word was one of the tracks destined for
The Return Of The Lostboy album, where it was known as
Love Is A Four Letter Word.
- Jim mentioned
the song back in in October 2010: "4 Letter World is the title of the new song I am currently working on. Music is by
Armando "Dino" Maggiorana and we worked together previously on the
Cry album. Dino co-wrote the
title track, plus New Sunshine Morning - the
latter is a particular favourite of mine. 4 Letter World is shaping up rather special, could be on to
something great!"
- The song was shelved as Simple Minds became the focus of attention. It was not mentioned again for almost eight years.
- It was finally recorded by Phunk Investigation who released it under the name Phunk Investigation Featuring Jim Kerr.
Phunk Investigation at the helm of the largest sound systems of the dance festivals, the conspirators behind famous
tracks with George Michael, Simple Minds, Boy George, and many others are now at work on a new music step.
A magic carpet ride in the Synth Pop World with a celebrated fellow traveler and inspirator: SIMPLE MINDS'

The first bullet fired is the track 4 LETTER WORD, a Synth infectious groove
with contemporary lyrics... The releases including the Original Mix plus banger remixes by Engi, Vanity Crime and
Diezel. All filled with dark throbbing techno beats, sharp synths and intense breakdown. WAS Born To Follow!
