Its 'You Showed Me' by The Turtles. Don't know where you can get the
original but it was covered recently by the Lightning Seeds (with
excellent remixes by Attica Blues, The Wiseguys and DJ Pulse) as well
as sampled on 'Transmitting Live From Mars' by De La Soul and some old
St Etienne track as well. Buy the remixes of the Lightning Seeds
version if you can't track down the original although the vinyl
version was promo only (anyone know where I can get the DJ Pulse mix
on wax?). Trust me they're great.
