this is a cool song and one I enjoy immensely. I played it pretty often when I was a dj at Mixposure. Really wretched. Hi to Marie.

Wow,You can sing Pete!That's not a question!
I'm from this old "80's" time that you speak of.
When my grown kids ask me about some of the remakes I just tell them "Daddy did it the first time around"!
I remember this well cause' my band had broken up and started regular day jobs but a few months later the leader of the band called me from out of state and said that this music inspired him to play live again and would I join the group...I said yes and we played out the 80.s....until they came to an end...and we did make A lot of money from the songs,including this one!

Great version!
Allen.

JoyfulWave,

I hate Flashdance, I wretch at the very sight of those cheesy 80's films that blighted my teenage years. Flashdance, Dirty Dancing, Footloose.... you know the score.

HOWEVER...

What you have done with this track is quite honestly amazing. It sounds so crisp and I commend all involved within it. You have livened up an old dude here! I may even go out and buy some legwarmers and lycra!!! :-)

You should send this off, if you haven't already done so, you would be crazy not to. Excellent work and very professional.
