OK, here goes... this is one of those tracks that you dont hear for a few years and all of a sudden it keeps going around and round in your head... 
 
Anyway, here goes (I wouldn't call it happy, but its definately hardcore and you guys are the most knowledgable IMO). 
 
It's a track off one of DJ Spellbound's mix-tapes from back in the days.  I have a feeling the tape is called 'Sex, drugs & hardcore' but I'm not 100% on that one.  The song is near the start, I think it's just after 'Flying High' by Ultimate Buzz. 
 
The major indentifiable element of the track is a chorus sung twice in a robot-style voice, the lyrics are hard to hear but says something like: 
"I live in a fantasy, 
wishing that you were near me, 
even if I was the one that left you, 
even when you call my name, 
???      when I close my eyes, 
I just wanna be near you 
Far away 
Miles away" 
 
c'mon guys this is killing me! 
 
thanx in advance

even if you're far away, far away, miles away

Virus, I found 'Far Away' by Pulp Shock, it's not quite what I was after though. 
 
That song is sung by a girl, the one I was interested in was a totally robotic voice, very synthetic.  The words were pretty much the same though. 
 
No other suggestions?

ian the one you are thinking of is: 
 
Pulp Shock - Far Away (DJ Sim's Hardcore Mix) 
 
well that's what i believe it to be anyways.(the one with the vocoded (robotic) voice)
