PDJ Project – Year VIII – Playlist #41 – State Of Indipendence

PDJ Project Year VIII weekly releases.

Welcome to Pdjproject Year VIII selection.

State of Independence” is a song written by Jon Anderson and Vangelis.
Originally recorded in Paris by Jon and Vangelis for their 1981 album The Friends of Mr Cairo, the lyrics were improvised for the music which was conceived as spiritual and uplifting in a Byzantine style.
The track was released as a single but did not chart. It subsequently became better known when Donna Summer released a cover version a year later in 1982. That became a top 20 UK hit single (and repeated the same feat 14 years later when issued as a remixed version in 1996) and a number one hit in the Netherlands.
In 1992, a third version of the song — retitled “Spiritual High (State of Independence)” — was recorded and released as a single by Moodswings, with vocals by the Pretenders lead singer Chrissie Hynde.
Here in a special re-work dedicated to flat area.
