damn i thought we were getting free beer 
but seriously folks....
virtigo: although the hardcore one is so much better etc etc (we all know the arguments), the point is that it's still Nick's song - it's still his talent that's being recognised in the charts.
as a songwriter myself, it must feel awesome to have such a compliment to your song! i'm jealous you bitch!!! j/k
quote:
Don't you worry. I'm sat here now with a pen and some paper writing lyrics down. Not going to well at present but I'm sure I'll come good! Then I just need the equipment and stuff to make the tune!!!!! I actually feel that I have a fair few ideas about making some tunes. Plus, as soon as you've made one tune you get ideas about your next one quickly anyway!
you should get together with someone who does have the equipment! many producers can't write songs very well (no offence), and often resort to making covers of other songs (see over half the hardcore released over the past year). we need more good songwriters in the scene! get writing brother! 
drugs is not the answer... drugs? is the question... yes is the answer

I understand what you mean and I agree. I know full well that its Nick's song and Im gealous of him too. I want to do things like he has. But dont you worry. I'm writing down some good lyrics now with my mate Lozza who also happens to be a DJ!

Well mitzi, you could say you were supporting Nick's tune. If I would have bought it then thats what I would have said! As it happens I h8 Flip n Fill's mix of it and prefer the Hardcore version - The Original. Big up Nick! Quality geezer!

Proper respect to you, Nick. Shooting Star is making huge waves, even over here in Canada and I think the HHC scene is better off for it. Well done!

Oh man....
support like this is phenominal. I'm hearing everywgere that people are wanting to know the history of the track.
Whether they'll join the HH fold is another matter but I think it's great that our profilr is being lifted.
I'm very interested to hear the news from Canada (cheers qconnects), and to everyone else around the world, do please keep me posted if the track surfaces where you are. I know it'll probably be the Flip & Fill version but that's cool. Please do keep me posted.
Once again, I gotta say, this is the best scene to be in, and the vibe is what puts the "happy" into HH for me.
Thank you everyone!
Nick.

Here in Aus most ppl know of shooting star even if they dont know Happy Hard. Its just one of those songs u dont forget even if you hear it once. I love it and think its great so keep up the good work.
Oh yeah i aint heard the F&F version but I doubt it will compare to original.

im really glad its doing so well for the hhc scene and it is great to know that a song which was origionally hhc got top ten in uk charts, but im still not a huge fan of the song...but i think thats cos im kinda biased 2 happy hardcore! i feel kinda bad for slating the song right after i had heard it..(think lots of us r guilty of this !!) if i hadnt heard the hhc version i would probably love the trance one because its mixed really well...but i think ill stick with bang for now ;)

Pacman, you said:

I have written a tune and it didnt take me that long really. I just thort of my girlfriend and it all came to be. I called it 'Velvet Skies'. I've even posted it to DJ Sy and he said it was good. Cant be bad eh? I would post it up but someone might steal it so I'll keep it to myself for now I think.
