It features "Geburt einer Nation" ("birth of a nation"), a German language cover version of Queen's "One Vision", and two reworkings of " Live Is Life" by the Austrian pop rock band Opus'.

Romo
Romantic Modernism, more commonly known as Romo, was a musical and nightclubbing movement, of glam/style pop lineage, in the UK circa 1995–1997, centred on the twin homes of Camden-based clubnight Club Skinny and its West End clone Arcadia, as well as concerts by the chief associated bands. The Romo movement was essentially a derivation of late-1970s disco and early-1980s club music, with an emphasis on the extroverted sartorial style and decadent air of New Romantic-era bands such as Japan and Soft Cell. Nonetheless, contemporary features in ''Melody Maker'' (where the genre was championed mainly by Simon Price and Taylor Parkes – it was dismissed by the rival ''NME'') tended to downplay the nostalgic connection with New Romantic, emphasising Romo's innovation and contemporary relevance. Much championed by the said writers at the ''Melody Maker'' as a stylish and poppy backlash against the dressed-down style and raw jangly sound of the Britpop movement, while var ...
