Gloria Jones, hands down.

BTW, right track, I can't thank you enough!!! This is good stuff! I am not familiar with the artists and titles yet, but after my first listen, I am very excited about this. Kudos!!
A possible convert.

I think that's the biggest load of crap I've read ina long while.
Saying homophobic characteristics have influenced her decision is nothing short of wrong. I believe Soft Cell was the pick bearing in mind that Marc Almond was a complete shirt lifter so what does Marilyn Manson have to do with it?


Anyway i'll have to say I like 'em all.

It's hard to tell without anything to emphasise the point.

Typed text has no emotion to it.

I also agree, Manson seems to have "tainted" his version. I like the feel as well!

Yeah MM has kinda given the song that haunting and sharp edge. Easily the most enjoyable of the 3 in my opinion.
