Yep, and a cracking song it is too!
Your atheism quote (at the bottom of your posts) actually did make me laugh out loud, by the way.

It's certainly Winter in July, but not Sarah Brightman (unless you turn out to know something I don't).

It's a recent Brightman song, but I don't know who else recorded it...

Sarah Brightman's covered Winter in July? My God I bet it sounds awful!
The original came out in 1991.

re: Winter In July... I don't know Brightman's, but I vaguely remember a dance-type song by that name. The artist was something like Bass Bomb or Bomb The Bass or something to that degree.

Written By: Tangle on 08/14/02 at 12:56 a.m.
It was Bomb the Bass.
I don't know how well-known they are in the States, but in England they're best known for a song called Bug Powder Dust.
And also the soundtrack to an Amiga game (please let there be someone else out there who remembers the glory days of the Amiga!) called Xenon 2.

Right, that's it!
Thanks everyone for playing.
