Boy... I HATED that remake!
Sorry, P. I understood the struggle, but you can't remake a masterpiece. | |

I always liked the Borg artwork, never much cared for the remake except for Shiela's contribution | |

An unmitigated disaster of a release. Thankfully he did not follow through with the threat of rerecording even more. | |

Well, at least the artwork was cool.

I thought it was great, but I will say it again, just like with the battle of the Irresistible Bitches, I think it is very hard for folks to come to terms with a new version after hearing the original for decades. Quality doesn't even come into play, it is just the knee jerk reaction of some new version insulting the older one.

Sheila's not on the remake at all. That's him playing percussion pads the same way he did during the RAVE concert. | |

the only thing worse than the artwork was the song itself. | |

They aren't all winners. | |
