dancerella	Love this song. I only realized how great it was just a few months ago when I heard it somewhere and yes it's sad that she passed on so young. Robert Palmer too. He was great and died pretty young. What a shame.

dirtyman2005	whitesockedfunk said: Much prefer the original I agree, Raf's version is better, although I do like Harold Faltermeyers production on Branigan's. Its a more rockier version. Both versions are great though, its good to have great multiple versions. Kind of like The System's and Robert Palmer tracks.

Raf sounds like he just learned to sing the song in English.

I prefer LB's.

SoulAlive	There are parts of this song that remind me of Donna Summer.It's exactly the type of song that I wish she had recorded back then.
