Didn't Glen say that this was the only ever public performance from "British Electronic Foundation" as "H17" were not allowed to perform due to contracts.
I was down there - about half a dozen people back from the front.
i love the lyrics of this song. i don't see how people think it has become tainted by cradle of filth's version... they did nothing but change the sound. i personally like the COF version a bit better.. it's just more my style... i'm not saying the origional is bad, because it's not. excelent song.
The original backing singer for H17 was Carol Kenyen who also worked with them again on Temptation 92 remix! She can also been seen in Go West's video " Don't Look Down" .
things dont need to dark or black, people can have fun, and they really look like that have a blast with the vocalist, who by the way is Claudia Brucken, one of the 80`s top voices(check out the name).
oh cradle of filth totally made this song so much sexier. i actually felt temptation when i heard their version. here i'm just tempted to vomit poppy bubblegum.
this is GREAT abd Heaven 17 RULE!!!!all the metal heads can just f%$& off and try to grow a brain!!!!I been into these guys since their first LP and they still are the s%#@!!!!!
Cradle of Filth can not write a deceent song to save their lives....they depend on braindead metal heads with no taste and take songs from innovative bands....piss off
Yeah, except for the fact that her metal girl voice is wholly incongruent with the biblically-inspired thrust of the song. In the H17 original the female vocal is black/gospel, fitting the lyrical theme. In this performance Claudia Brucken's vocal evokes a sultry Eve, again fitting the lyrical theme. But hey: Who needs thoughtful, clever, subtly layered performances when you can have the distorted utterances of CofF's lead 'singer' augmented by a screeching and yowling teen metal chick?
Dani Filth is a great singer and the chick[i can't remember who it is] has amazing vocals as well... they made it that way on perpose. i'm assuming it's just not your style of music?
claudia brucken was the vocalist for 80s electronic band propaganda, had a fantastic solo career & is now working as half of OneTwo with half of OMD. she has one of the most interesting voices in music, but i do admit that her talent was slightly wasted here!
Billie Godfrey shows tired Claudia how to sing!!

Yes, it is. And it's genius (unlike, say, Cradle of Filth...but I digress).
