I have a feeling that the Gregorian exorcist reverberated voice effects that were used in the song Good Life, by the American band from Detroit J.R. Bookwalter for the film Robot Ninja in 1989, released after Good Life.

No track listing on the reverse unlike the original 12" release. Side B actually plays the Steve "Silk" Hurley remix, not the L.A. mix.

Yep, this is a classic. Roll back to a much younger me's introduction to house music and wondering why can't all music give you this feeling? Some scrutineers may look at this and think it very basic by today's production values, and who am I to tell them differently? But some music gives you more than sound, groove and uplifting/melancholic moods. Some music envokes memories, and this is just an example of many for me.

Great single and I really like the B-side remixes. Some cool analogue going on there.
