We didn't do it ;-(

While this was a very gallant and well put together effort, I tend to agree
that it was futile for the following reasons:

1. The hardcore fanbase is too small.
2. The song was not going to appeal to the wider, CD buying public.
3. Publicity and airplay were poor - how was the wider, CD buying public to
get to hear it?
4. It is almost impossible to compete in the singles market against the more
established players; they have their ways of "ensuring" that their singles
"sell" well, which are probably beyond the financial capability of
Voiceprint.

None of this reflects badly on Dave Law; his efforts have been Herculenean
and worthy of high praise.
Unfortunately, it was the wrong song and the wrong company.
