Persian Teardrop
I posted about this on my personal blog before I had this music blog up and running but never received any response to it. I'm hoping that the readership over on this blog might be able to provide more help.
Some time ago, I downloaded a song that was entitled "Persian Teardrop" (currently added to My Music Box) but it turned out to be a brilliant mix of "Persian Love Song" by Dead Can Dance and "Teardrop" by Massive Attack with Elizabeth Fraser (of the Cocteau Twins). I had assumed it was a remix that was available on a CD somewhere but I've had no luck finding it. I'm now beginning to think it's a homemade remix that has just been circulating on the internet. I posted on the Massive Attack forums hoping someone there might know for certain, but no joy. So I figured I would try posting on my blog on the off chance that someone might stumble across it and know if (and where) I can find a legitimate copy of this remix.

I'm desperate to use this music in a short film that I'm in post-production on but without this information, I don't know who to contact to ask about the festival rights and I do not want to use it without permission. Both because that's risky for me but also because it's not fair to the artists. So if anyone can help me out with this, I would really appreciate it.
P.S. Due to popular demand, I've also posted the lyrics to Persian Teardrop here.

i don't know about where to find a ligit copy of the song Persian Teardrop, but have you thought about getting rights to use both songs from their respective artists, and then using the remix? if there is no published copy of the remix, i don't think you have to worry about the composer coming after you for it (assuming he or she even had rights to the songs to begin with)
Wow, that makes so much sense I'm embarrassed I didn't think of it myself. Thanks for the suggestion!
Hi, I love Persian Teardrop very much.
And I'm looking for the lyrics of this song.
Do you have it?
Oh~I'm from Taiwan. And you?
p.s.
I'm not good at English. Sorry！：)
I should have posted this comment earlier in case you chose the "receive follow up comments" option... but the lyrics to the song are posted here: http://www.weirdgrrl.ca/musicmusings/2008/05/persian-teardrop-lyrics.html
P.S. I'm from Canada and your English looks pretty good to me!
