Talk about a guilty pleasure, I actually liked that. Come to think of it, that would have been a great Bee Gees song for Barry's falsetto to tackle. Groovy.

That was a really cool cover! Made me think of other KISS songs done in a different musical style... A reggae version of Under The Gun would work well!

Don't mind the idea of it but I can't work out if its a pisstake or not?
The mix is terrible.
I can't work out when its from? early 90s?
Some of the chords sound wrong too underneath the vocal melody!
I'm a big disco fan but this doesn't really do it for me no offence

I've always felt that the pre-chorus sounds like the pre-chorus in Sword And Stone. (chords and melody) In this cover it's even more obvious. ("Someone to hold you with..."/"I could take on the world...") If Nevison didn't want two similar pre-choruses on the same album, he should have picked SAS and left off IFHTHY. HAving said that, I really liked that. I must say I almost prefer the disco version. :oops:

If I didn't own Crazy Nights I'd say that was one of the best Bee Gees songs I've never heard.

Reminds me of "Tragedy" by the Bee Gees. Hate to admit it but that was pretty good.

Didn't know he was in the band Die Artze.

It's like some kind of Bryan Ferry/Bee Gees/Elvis Presley mutant evil thing from hell.

Its like the version Paul Stanley WANTED to make. Its his dream crossed with a Folgers ad crossed as a disco superstar.

Always loved this (even own the CD single). It works magnificently as disco, even if the production isn't quite right.

it would worth the effort if a higher quality version of the video could be available.
