Wow.I was so surprised how tastefully this was done. Special people did this .they didn't mess it up.Prolly didn't sell either but who cares those who seek will find as i always do.gorgeous!
Very well done Miss Girly. A very daring and very brave cover of an uncoverable song. Hurrah for Miss Vixey, and her voice is very much like Kate Bush, without being a cheap copy; realizing my utmost musical fantasy: Kate and David together one day! I don't know who you are or what u want Miss Pixey but you can have it all for gettin it so right!
Doesn't capture the alienation of the original. Video is too cliched and dull and the break in the middle is horrid. Nixey's vocal is good though. Could have worked, but like 98% of cover versions doesn't live up to the original.
yup, glad to know that you and i feel the same, the song is good, but the original is the freakin best. you know its funny, cuz i heard this song when i was 15, while listening to rogers cable radio, in the 700+ channels, i wrote down the song and artist, and spent the next year looking for it, and now its made it this far, i dont understand the sudden need to conform, when it was fine all alone....or maybe, this is just the video, and has nothing to do with the original song or maybe im wrong
Unbelievably well done cover. It doesn't take anything away from the original in mood, but updates the sound to today's equivalent of the 80s pioneers, Japan.

That was breathtaking.
I had no idea...I really thought Sara Nixey was only Black Box Recorder and nothing more.
The restrained musical notes tear at you with all their might, and her breathy vocals dazzle and leave you stunned.
I remember hearing this in 1981 or so and the words were so good I remember every single one.
I think she has paid David Sylvian a compliment. Her version is wonderful.
