This is by "Eight Point Five" and the song title is "Mary". As far as I know this was their only release as a group. You should be able to find copies of it in 7" and 12" format at GEMM.com.

BTW, the sample is the 12" mix of the song (much harder to find than the 7") Good Luck!!

Great song! How long is the complete 12" version (since the "sample" is nearly 5 minutes long)?

The song itself is strange as it is mixed over a different song/background music at a very low level. You can clearly hear it in the silent parts of the song on the 7".

The 12" mix has a different beginning and additionally the song ends as in the clip, but the background music continues for about 40 seconds. That was omitted from the clip probably to keep the file size small. One of the weirder mixes I've heard.
