3 a.m. Eternal" is a song by The KLF, numerous versions of which were released as singles between 1988 and 1992. In January 1991, an acid house pop version of the song became an international top ten hit single, hitting # 1 in the UK singles chart and #5 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and leading to The KLF becoming the internationally biggest-selling singles band of 1991. When, the following year, The KLF accepted an invitation to perform at the BRIT awards ceremony, they caused controversy with a succession of anti-establishment gestures that included a duet performance of "3 a.m. Eternal" with punk band Extreme Noise Terror, during which The KLF co-founder Bill Drummond fired machine gun blanks over the audience of music industry luminaires. There were mamy versions of the song released , i really didn't care much for the one that was popular on US radio....(Justified and Ancient ?) Even though it was nice to hear house on the radio, the one being played on the radio really WASN'T house. There was really only one mix I played a lot.
