i have been obsessed and addicted 2 la roux and 80's 4 a year now but id never heard of heazven 17 and la roxu til now and he is absolutely AMAZING 2!!! :)) x
LOVE Heaven 17 - Very underrated 80's band. Glen still has an awesome voice and looks cool. La Roux is a great person to pair them with considering the 80's influence in her music. Great!
Such an awesome video. Considering all the crap on UA-cam and you see a gem like this with only 16,000 views. Oh well, at least I got a chance to see it.
Nice idea to get these two together. Reminded me of what a great old song 'sign your name' is. Will go and watch Terence Trent D'arby's original version now.
Love Elly's melodic choices in this. I know this gig was a one-off but I would be really interested to hear her take on other covers, just to see where she would go with them.
BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO !!!! Dame this was awesome duet w/ Heaven 17. But........I do remember this song was made famous by Terence Trent D'Aarby in 1987, a black artist, who sung this N was quite popular bk then. I even have the cassett of his album too. This does bring back memories, for sure.....I would agree that this duet should be in her next album..........IT would be HOT on the charts. : >
This cover IS cute n' fluffy! Terence Trent D'Arby (now Sananda Maitreya) actually wrote this song, featured on his debut album of 1987--as U know. The Heaven 17 connection is that one band member, the multi-talented Martyn Ware, co-produced the original record. Just wanna point that out, the reason for all of this, lol!
Fun song, lots of energy and nice singing, but light years away from the original Trent D'Arcy version which has a real soulful rhythm, while this is just "pop" and kind of frenetic. I prefer the Sananda Maitreya Live clip of this song, as well as the George Michael cover.
@maaraagiingirl If she could act...I think If the makeup and hair was proper she would look like Lisbeth. But Noomi Rapace has captured that character best, so I'd have to say no.
I've been loving the original song for years, but this is just perfect. Hats off Elly, you completely blew it away. I'm impressed.

The original is great and this is a very different version but is just as good. Their voices work brilliant together.

I bet this was killer for her
Glen Gregory’s is OG
Is there any place I can download the mp3 to this?

no way
look like Tintin.

with all due respect, but this version ..I don´t know I think that screwed the original version up
@rydeboy1 No.
@rydeboy1--- that's fine as long as ur a boy. But your name includes boy so I can imply that you are, in fact a boy.
too fast...
you couldnt pull it off.
NEVER AGAIN PLEASE
talk about tone deaf audience
fucking awful
This is by far the worse thing I have ever heard!!!
Fucking awful!
