"The Different Story (World of Lust and Crime) (song)" is a song by Peter Schilling from the album of the same name. The album was produced by Michael Cretu, and was released on October 25, 1988.

With the exception of this song, much of the album from which it came was described as "bland, downbeat techno-pop" sounding much like "Major Tom". The song contains pleasant female vocals of Susanne Müller-Pi[1] along with boisterous singing from Schilling himself.[2]

Charts

While the video was a top ten pop hit in Sweden, the album from which it came did not fare as well likely due to the previously released tracks on the album. The song did however, reach No. 16 on the Billboard Dance chart and was his most recent pop hit in the United States, reaching No. 61 on the Hot 100 in 1989.[3]

Video

The video portrays Schilling on horseback, in addition to walking through a forest playing a wind instrument with Müller-Pi dancing and singing in a white dress.[4]
