This is in the database twice, the other one with a lowercase spelling. I've rated and commented on the other one, I won't repeat it here. TMA has said it already better than I did. It's a great rocking mod!
Edited to add: I also love the "whistling" line in the beginning and the end. It is so peaceful and nice, and such a good contrast to the rock-guitar parts.

The song starts, you hear some deep soft music, "probably some lame easy listening music" And just as your about to press the stop button and download a different MOD, Cortouchka's melody hits you without warning, and once you hear that first riff, you're not going to want to stop. With Cortouchka, Moby has you exactly where he wants you, and it's obvious in the way he structured his song, that he too is aware of this. This song just doesn't relent, every time your used to one thing, the rythym picks up, or he takes the melody even further. The only part of this song that I found to be weaker than the rest was the ending, and that doesn't matter much because by this point, you have just sat through some 6 minutes of rockin' music. A definate keeper. This is the best use of guitars I think I've ever seen in a MOD. aside from sounding a little dry at times, they really worked wonders for this song. the perfect mix of treble and bass. Moby has certainly earned a reputation for knowing what he's doing. Cortouchka remains true to that.
