Dune (band) - Reunion & "Heaven" Issues

Reunion & "Heaven" Issues

When Verena Von Strenge came back to Dune in late 1999, they recorded the single "Dark Side Of The Moon", and began recording songs for an album called Reunion. However, Dune recorded a cover of Avancada & Central Seven's 1999 hit "Piece Of Heaven", changed the lyrics, and called it "Heaven". Dune incorrectly thought they had permission to produce the cover. The CD single and an LP Vinyl release was made, and a music video, which played on VIVA TV in Germany. However, a week later, A7 put in a court order on the single "Heaven", saying it sounds like their single "Piece Of Heaven". Dune was later forced to remove "Heaven", and they could not release their album Reunion due to the court order. The recorded singles, except for "Heaven", were released on the later album "History".

Famous quotes containing the words heaven and/or issues:

    Of all the inhabitants of the inferno, none but Lucifer knows that hell is hell, and the secret function of purgatory is to make of heaven an effective reality.
    Arnold Bennett (1867–1931)

    How to attain sufficient clarity of thought to meet the terrifying issues now facing us, before it is too late, is ... important. Of one thing I feel reasonably sure: we can’t stop to discuss whether the table has or hasn’t legs when the house is burning down over our heads. Nor do the classics per se seem to furnish the kind of education which fits people to cope with a fast-changing civilization.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
