Today Brisbane band YesYou have premiered a new song online, ‘Be There’, featuring the vocals of Dan Parsons.

Apparently there are no plans to release the song properly, which is a bit of a pity because it’s rather awesome. At the moment you can only listen to it accompanied by a trailer for the film.
