I cant find them anywhere and i am very interested!

I can only make out the first line: "On her/our way" the rest sound like gibberish.

HELP!?

It's taken from Charlatans "Patrol"

On our way, on our way to get back home and see you today...

Here's a brief thread talking about it. Unfortunately the link that's in this thread is a dead acid clown end.

hmm it doesnt sound like it.
The lyrics after "on our way" don't sound like "to get back home to see you today"

I've been known to butcher a lyric or two, so I may very well be wrong... ;) But I'm pretty sure it's Charlatans 'Patrol' that was used.

It's "on our way... on our way... on our way... today... on our way... today...".

I always thought it was 'On a wave, on a wave, on a wave (takes me here), on a wave (takes me here).'

Oh well.

This is what I always thought and read somewhere

But rather than (takes me here) it's "today", in my eyes..or ears rather.

So just to recap, from the top, and a one, two, three, four...."On a wave, On a Wave, On a Wave today, on a wave today...."

...And, also heard that it was our very own Tom Rowlands on vocal duty for it.

No, I'm sure it samples Patrol by The Charlatans. Go to 5:00 of Patrol (The Chemical Brothers Remix) if you don't believe me.

Completely irrelivant, but i am on a different forum with the username "it doesn't matter", and i just freaked out when i saw you had the latest reply in this topic, becuase i thought it was me, and i don't remember responding to it.


thanks for your time.

On listening to the song... yes, this definitely is a sample from "Patrol". But they cut out everything except "On Our Way" and "Today".

Yeah I hear it to at 5:00mins on Patrol, but it's just half of the lyric on Sunshine. . . So did I dream that I read/heard that Tom Rowlands contributed vocals to this? Wouldn't be that hard to believe.

Upon closer inspection, the second sunshine lyrics definitely go "today", but it's pronounced more like "too-day-ee".

Listen at 5:06. It's masked by the insruments somewhat, but if you listen closely you can hear that "too-day-ee".
