GEHT SO

ist ganz ok... aber natürlich meilenweit hinter dem Original der PSB

schlechtes Cover

tsssssss

Hey, geniale Version des Originals der PSB. Jedoch gefällt mir nur die Singleversion. Die Walthamstow-Album-Version klingt langweilig.
****
Hip-Hop-Beat, ein Refrain, der dem Original sehr ähnlich ist und gerappte Strophen (diese wurden beim Original ja ebenfalls rap-mässig interpretiert) - ein gelungenes Cover!
Ich kann mich allerdings daran erinnern, wie einer der vier Hohlköpfe in einem Interview erzählte, es habe damals eine Wette zwischen der Band und der Plattenfirma gegeben, darüber, ob dies ein Hit werden würde. Die Band habe nicht daran geglaubt - und recht behalten ...

hätten sie sich schenken können..#40 in D.

3-

unter normalen umständen hätt ich 3 oder 4 sterne vergeben. aber die unterdurchschnittlichen bewertungen sind nicht gerechtfertigt, auch wenn das teil nicht an das original rankommt
**
schwaches Cover
****
Ganz gutes Cover. In 6/93 GB #11
***
seltsames Cover
**
verzichtbar

Better than the Pet Shop Boy's original but not there best!
****
Diese Cover Version fand ich nicht so gut. Hatte mir mher erwartet von East 17.
****
Buena.
***
Ich kann schon mit dem Original nichts anfangen
***
ok but only that. 7 weeks in the UK top 100. UK#11 and Ireland#14.

In augustus 1993 de 4e single van het album "Walthamstow". Aardige cover van The Pet Shop Boys, werd door de Top 40 genegeerd, maar kwam in de Mega Top 50 toch nog tot nr 48
**
... unnötiges, ärgerliches Cover ...
*****
Great cover!
***
keine Chance gegen die PSB-Version – knappe 3*...
*
miserabel
**
East Ender besingen die Mädels aus dem West End. Unnötiges Cover, der Ranz war ja sogar in den Top40...
*****
Surprising that someone could take a Pet Shop Boys song and do it justice, sounds really good in the faster style.
****
Buena

I think I prefer the Pet Shop Boys' version
