"A Criminal Mind" in one of my all-time favourite songs, regardless of times/genres/styles! I listen to it as often as I can! I only wish that more of his material was as dark & eerie as this gem! Don't get me wrong, the rest of the album is good but... nothing beats the Criminal! "Ask one who's kown me, if I'm really so bad - I AM!
Edited 11 years agoShame as this release only deserves 2 stars,for leaving several tracks off this aniversary release,which would of made it an excellent collection:
A Criminal Mind (Edit) 4:38
A Criminal Mind (Video Mix) 5:03
(You're A) Strange Animal (Jungle Mix) 6:04
(You're A) Strange Animal (Video Mix) 5:12
(You're A) Strange Animal (Animal Oriented Radio Mix) 4:44
