5 out of 5 stars Correct "Alone".......2006-10-31

This is indeed the album that contains the track "Alone" from Silence of the Lambs. The This Mortal Coil version is not the one used. The sound quality of the song when used in the film is a little odd - some kind of echo and weird equalization was used, perhaps to suggest the stereo being in another room, or maybe just to make it sound more creepy.

It should also be noted that it is NOT the song that many people look for from this film - the dancing-in-the-mirror song where he films himself with the "flyin flyin' flyin' over you" lyric - that is "Goodbye Horses" by Q. Lazzarus.

As for the rest of A-Z, absolutely outstanding. Highly recommended.

3 out of 5 stars Silence of the Lambs track.......2005-12-05

To the guy/gal who's looking for "THe Silence of the Lambs" version of "Alone", i think it might be a cover version of this Colin Newman track by This Mortal Coil.

2 out of 5 stars This Is Not the Version from "The Silence of the Lambs"!.......2005-08-16

Fellow music Lover trying to save someone elses dime. I searched to find that cool song, "Alone", from "The Silence Of the Lambs" and I thought that I found the correct version. I Was Wrong, this is NOT The Version from the movie. At this point I don't know where to get it because an earlier review stated that the Soundtrack didn't have the correct version either.

As a stand alone CD, I didn't like it.
I do like groups like The Cure especially "Mixed Up" album.

If someone finds the Correct version, leave a review so that other Lovers of "that cool song" can buy it for themselves.
cheers

5 out of 5 stars Wire's 4th Album?.......2005-03-13

Very much a progression from '154' - perhaps more guitar driven and conventiomal than 'document & eyewitness' but well worth the purchase if you even remotely dig Wire.

Best songs: 'Alone', 'Inventory' (tho' I have a weakness for the 'S-s-s-star Eyes' wig out) and 'But No'.

Undoubtably Colin's best LP!!!
