> Nation", which features guest vocals by Ari-Up and Viv from the Slits.

> Well, my dream involved they lyrics to that tune ("Prince Far-I gonna

> shake up the nation") and had me asking a question using some version of

> the lyrics (which don't really exists, but were changed for the dream).

> The question also involved use of the word "pon" which in reggae patois

> means "upon", but I was using it in a different way, to mean "for" (which
