Are you a fan of the original?

I think it stays very close to the original melody.

Love it myself

Not overly, A-ha were never my favourites, but I much prefer it to the Milk Inc. version.

A-Ha should never be covered... especially by acts like 'Milk Inc'

There is no comparison really, A-ha version is a billion times better. If you are going to cover a classic 80's track you need to put your own twist on it, not just turn it into some generic dance track with sub par vocals

A-Ha definitely, I'm not into that dance ****e they throw into the middle of classic songs to make them current. Is it it me or is it always the same dance tune thing?

Ive noticed alot of people critisize dance music for being all computer generated and due to this think of the acts who make these songs as talentless.

Lets all remember that the 80's started the whole computer generated music era lol

Milk inc do generally suck balls i'll be honest but i love this version

There is absolutely nothing wrong with 'computer generated'/synthesized music and there are lots of great dance tracks out there, It's just unfortunately this is not one of them (in my opinion , of course)
