Does anyone else hear a little Stevie Wonder in the vocals?

Even though RP is defined by undefinable eclecticism...., this song still does not fit the mold.  Too poppy..., and he admits it himself..., He has it bad...
This was a very frustrating song to listen too.{#Doh}

Reminds me of something off the Dan Fogelberg Greatest Hits Album.  Uggg.

Totally different flavor than the original, but I still love it.

Why would it be good if it wasn't played again?  You haven't given any constructive criticism; this is a quite interesting tune, and comes over well acoustically.  I'm not a fan of Nik Kershaw, but really - be fair!  This acoustic version is well played, and very pleasant,

Wasn't this on the Pretty In Pink soundtrack? By Danny Hutton Hitters? But this is a good version.

Wow! That was excellent! Without a doubt my favorite Nik Kershaw tune, and that was an excellent version!

Ok - and I'm all about acoustic music - but I like the original better. Would probably be better with some harmony vocals.

I dig this a lot (8). Quite nice--I like it better than the original. That doesn't happen very often.

Hm, this song is absolutely _nothing_ without the typical 80's-style of music and instruments.

Oh man, I've never heard this and it just makes me desperately long for the original. That's one of my favorite songs of the very wacky and prolific early 80's.
