"Hype" was an influential synthpop album and the album track here is much more polished, but personally I'm much more partial to the quietly beautiful demo version that was on the reissue of "Freq": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gddVnK6o1KI
All these years I thought Calvert was just some guy who played Lead Poet in Hawkwind, but he released several great solo albums before dying in 1988.

Syd Midnight - 2012-11-27 Alastair Reynolds' "Revelation Space" series of sci-fi novels contains either an nod to this song or an eerie coincidence... the Greenflies, self-replicating terraforming robots that go rogue and gradually devour the universe. Gives me the shivers.
