I always thought this was W's song.

@Kymmiesaur : Quite wrong. Pink Lady released this song in 1978, LONG before the girls of W were even born.

Mie is 50, Kei just turned 51 last week (September 2).

love Pink Lady, but prefer W's version of this song

[RobsiejB]

It seems that all the fans of W like their versions of all the covers they did better than the originals, that's understandable ofcourse since they're fans of W, I myself prefer Pink Lady's version way more than W's. Pink Lady sings, and move like grown women .. If I look at W's performance I find them to be quite childish. I prefer all the originals .. I dislike the MIDI in W's versions, which you can blatantly hear in Suki Yo Captain (originally done by The Lilies), and their Southpaw ..

@JeffB1959 I know that now. I was saying that i thought it was their song, Because i had never heard pink lady sing it. o-o

pink lady wrote some of the heaviest music ever, way heavier than slayer or any metal band.

I think that in W's PV for this, some parts of the dance look a lot smoother (like in the beginning, before they start singing, or at 1:18 where they put their hands together). Still, seeing the original is really nice. I favor W's version (I heard it first, which is makes it sound like the 'original' to my ears) but I definitely can't knock this one.
