Both songs feature numerous riffs from similar "Middle Eastern"-sounding scales - probably Phrygian dominant for one.
Anyhow, this song predates "Carry Fire".
If you mean Robert Plants Carry Fire, you might be wrong. Because Plant's song is from 2017! This song is from 2008! Has Mr. Plant copied something from Thievery Cooperation?

The whole song seems like intro. I've been waiting for the actual music to start. Repetitive and boring.
Nice accompanyment to my workout! Haven't heard it in quite a while.
Keep it up💖👆👍
heard them at a friend's NYC apartment when young and thought this was one of the benefits of going to new places. Still find this years later

Pita alone is purposeless, it's like asking for more buns at McDonald's. Hummus, babaganoush, muhamara and tzatziki are useless without Pita. Pita, brushed with good olive oil and lightly grilled, can stand alone.

Most people believe that the attention span of a gnat is around 3.4 seconds. But what you don't know is that gnats don't fly around you to eat your sweat. They are listening in on your brain waves and conversations. Their attention span is about 34 hours.

Yeah; I guess it could vary based on how drunk the sailor was and which ship he was on. Of course they could always put him in the scuppers.

Really getting into this, would love to hear something else by them.
This reminds me of a James Bond movie.

Tricky business amnesiacs.
Never again
This song is featured prominently in Steven Soderbergh's recent film Side Effects. It's a pretty good movie, and the song is played in a very interesting and key moment in the film. It's also played in the closing credits.
It'll be my luck that there is a hell and that Satan can't stop playing this song.
Here we go again
Not again

This song acurately captures how loopy I feel right now all jacked up on cold medicine.
Love TC and have this album but always skip this track as its WAY too repetetive.

PSD time once again.
And someone's 'borrowed' my 'Best of TC' CD and never returned it... hmmmm, will have to revisit the likely culprits!
Even though this is a Generation Wuss band, I like them. ![{#Flamed} {#Flamed}](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/flamed.gif)

5 Times in one month. Enough already
i love these guys, every cd they've made is worth listening to over and over and over. if you suffer from musical ADD (i'm sorry) and can't take this one any more, start over with mirror conspiracy. you won't regret, or my name isn't a question it's an answer ..and one i really don't care for
I know many don't care for this group or their music, but I love them

I presumed you were playing this for the Gowri and Ganesha festival. Don't know much about it, but my staff in India told me about it.
Very close to a sound track cut from an old DOS game "Silent Thunder" if you can find this old game on CD it's worth it for the 12 music tracks ....
Love this song! discovered these musicians through RP

Nothing lower than a 1? PSD, here I come.

Another great reason to listen to RP. Listen to one track, like it, discover more about the artist.

To really enjoy this, you need 4 feet of dense soap foam, people doing unmentionable things out of sight in it plus a DJ with white tracks under his nose and the Ibizan sun rising, un-noticed, outside the double-airlocked doors

how repetitive
re: Lewis Cooper's photo a dozen entries below.
When Theivery Corp played at Atlanta's Fabulous Fox last year, they borrowed heavily from the local hip-hop crowd. Had a couple of ladies dancing to this; had singers and other musicians joining them on and off throughout one of the ROCKINGEST concerts I've ever seen. (If that's not a word, I hereby copyright it and retain all Artisitc and Intellectual Property rights. RIAA? You paying attention?)
