Share: Various – 80's Re:Covered - Your Songs With The 80's

An interesting remake of some old and newer songs by the 80's Bands like Johnny Hates Jazz, Heaven 17, Wang Chung etc...

Enjoy.

Thank you for posting this. I'm not a big fan of Artists doing covers unless they completely make it their own. If the song sounds too close to the original, I just think, why bother?

The stand outs for me are:

ABC - High & Dry
Heaven 17 - Rocket Man
China Crisis - It's Too Late
Black - Wicked Game

I'm so glad that Human League/Heaven 17, after Phil Oakey left, convinced Glenn Gregory to join up finally.
I love old Human League with Phil Oakey and I also love Heaven 17 with Glenn Gregory.
I couldn't image "Heaven 17" era songs sung by Phil Oakey.

I love Curiosity Killed The Cat but this version sounds like a pub band going on their 5th straight night.
Johnny Hates Bob!?!?!
