hmmm I always had mixed feelings about this song.It's the type of song that I want to like,but something about it feels.....odd.The Debbie Harry/Chic collaboration feels a little forced.

Considering that "Rapture" is very Chic-sounding,you would have thought that a Chic/Debbie Harry pairing would KICK ASS,but this song falls flat.

I love the KOO KOO album very much! The video is strange but good.
