Title: "Just The Thing".
Post by: Martin. on March 30, 2008, 02:32:44 pm: Does anyone have the full version of this song? I assume it was made before "Private Radio" came about?

Also, was this song used for anything in particular or was it just a leaked snippet we got?

Any help would be appreciated!

Feeling good, and
Oh, so right

She plays the "Private Radio" riff in it and some parts are to the tune of the song.

Post by: nosticker on April 07, 2008, 09:26:50 am: Everyone chill. It's been around a while, and sounds like a demo, one of those things you just put down so you don't forget what you have in your head. Doesn't sound unlike a radio commercial, the kind where they play a track like this and add a voice-over at the end saying "Pepsi, Just The Thing" or something like that.

Never was released, so IMO it's unfair to make any judgment.

I love it!!!
