Yeah, Babble I saw that on MTV "It Came From the 80's". They went out to the Thompson Twins studio/house in New Zealand. Babble sounds like really new age shite to me, it's really bad, don't spend your cash on it, if you can even find it. Of course that was one TV show, so I guess I haven't heard much from them, but Hanson I've heard enough from them to know they are crap. Watching too much F'ing MTV, Rusty
