The eighth beat shouldn't be there - this cover loses the pace and drive that the original (in 7/4 time) had.

[Jens Kristian Davidsen]

I am absolutely sure that Vince and Andy made a very clear choice to do this in 4/4, maybe to prove that it is basically a great pop song and not much more, and perhaps to make it more steady in pace and drive. If anyone wants to hear Erasure do odd beats, timing whatever... Listen to La Gloria... It's brilliant, camp but brilliant.

@Dermacrosis Exactly,to everything you mentioned.I only get pissed off when I see arrogant,wet behind the ears artists riding on the success of other people's songs,not when an already successful older band does rendition that people happen to like.There is a difference.To all you complainers, please for the love of God, stop whining like a bunch of resentful five year olds with a new sibling.A majority of us know and appreciate the original song and it's artist.No need for hurt feelings. =)

God you are stupid as fuck.

[Dermacrosis]

No he wouldn't. After all they couldn't have done it without his consent. He was hardly what you would call mainstream withhis music or vids.

I love Erasure and "Respect" is in my all time top ten songs but so is this song and as Frank Doberman would say...Oi Erasure no, this is a classic by that great talent Peter Gabriel and should be left that way.
