[this is the line-up of the Outside World tour, not the credits for the Wishful Thinking recordings]

There is a poem of Goethe in wich these lines occur:
"Und umzuschaffen das Gesschaffene
Dass sich's nicht zum Starren waffne
Wikt ewiges lebendiges Thun"

Wich can be roughly translated:
"And refashioning the fashioned
lest it stiffen into iron
is work of endless vital activity"

this is one of those cases where the remix album has more balls than the original album.
