Track 02: Special Star (Matt Pop Murder Mix) 06:28
The Matt Pop Murder Mix is totally killing it! It's 6 minutes and 28 seconds of classic pure Hi-NRG extended listening pleasure. There are plenty of Easter eggs 🥚 hidden here for devoted Dead or Alive fans to find. It's 100% total ear candy for Gen X'ers who are craving a new retro-inspired dancefloor favorite! And "Son of a Gun" we still can't decide which mix is our favorite; the edit or the extended mix. To our ears, both are genuine works of audio art. Someone who heard this mix in our inner circle said it "sounds like Stock, Aitken, and Watermen reunited to make this record". Is there a greater compliment?

lyrics
"Special Star"
Written by Dead or Alive
Verse 1:
You're out there somewhere with a hundred friends
And what I need to know is when will I see you again
You smile and say that there's a place and time
And that you'll soon be mine
And what I need to know is when
Chorus:
You are what I dreamed about
You're the wish I made when the lights went out
You are my special star
The one I want. The first in line.
You are my special star
Let it shine, let it, let it shine
Verse 2:
I sit and dream and I stare into space
And what I wouldn't give if I could only see your face
You'll never know and if you did you'd laugh
I couldn't count the times that I have kissed your photograph
Chorus:
You are what I dreamed about
You're the wish I made when the lights went out
You are my special star
The one I want. The first in line.
You are my special star
Let it shine, let it, let it shine
Verse 3:
You're out there somewhere with a hundred friends
And what I need to know is when will I see you again
You smile and say that there's a place and time
And that you'll soon be mine
And what I need to know is when
Chorus:
You are what I dreamed about
You're the wish I made when the lights went out
You are my special star
The one I want. The first in line.
You are my special star
Let it shine, let it, let it shine
(Repeat Chorus) (x4 and fade out)
