Personally, I think not, the style doesn't appeal to me. Maybe it's a grower though, and after more listens it might be ok, IMO.

It's okay but it's very raw. Basically it's just her singing over a kind of accordian or organ sound. She sticks the melody but it's a very stripped down version. I personally was hoping for something that had a fuller sound to it.

Me too.
I do like it, but all it's really acheived it making me want to listen to the PSB version.

I told her US distributor id be happy to buy the track. But her management and Astralwerks said it will likely appear April 17th as a maxi single download on the digital stores.
The way the music labels distribute music only promote piracy. Its a global marketplace and we'd like to buy stuff as soon as we can.

As much as I love Tracey Thorn, this version is not my favourite. It is quite raw and lacks the lush sounds of PSB. To be fair, there would not be much point in Tracey attempting to create a pet shop boys sound, we would only be disappointed. So, we get tracey doing what she does best! It's agreat compliment!

I find it so listless and depressing it makes the PSB version sound like a merry show-tune.
