Listen to the whole version. It sounds beautiful. Sounds a little like a track at BP.

"Well worth 79 pence!", says Neil on the official website. I agree, I like it.

Meh. I'm indifferent to it. Someone else wrote elsewhere that without the propulsive drum n bass 90's EBTG sound, Tracey sounds like a depressed wet mop.

Must agree there.

She's interviewed in the new issue of Attitude and is asked whether she'd like to work with PSB.

"I met Neil at a party just the other night actually and he asked me about my cover. That reminds me, I must send him a copy. I'd love to work with them, of course, but filling Dusty's shoes would be a tall order. I think it's great they're still making music and having hit records. Gives the charts a bit of depth, if you know what I mean."

I LOVE Tracey Thorn. She's pure class.

Her cover of the song doesn't really work for me. I find it a bit dull. And - even without having heard the full album - I can see why it was deleted from the tracklisting. It's not a bad cover, but certainly not exciting.
