Candy Flip, "Strawberry Fields Forever"

[The Seldom Seen Kid]

Bizarre one this. Take one Beatles classic, and mix with a funky beat...

Candy Flip were named after the slang term for the practice of taking ecstasy and LSD at the same time which fitted perfectly with the popular rave scene of the time.

WOW! And I thought I was the only one who knew this in the entire planet!
It was through this cover that I discovered the original song. And although I see the classic status of the original, those Funky Drummer-type dance beats really hit me somewhere special inside.
Yeah, those rave days were pure bliss!
