Traci Lords cover of Walking In LA

[cryo]

OK, maybe this doesn't exactly count as '80's since it's a modern (I think) cover, but I happened to see the video for Traci Lords doing Missing Persons' "Walking In LA" and wondered if anyone had the audio in some format? My understanding is that the song is not available commercially - I think she only has one album, and it's not on that one. I looked around a little, but obviously a Google search for "Traci Lords" is going to get a lot of stuff other than music.

Here's the video:

[WARNING: fans of Missing Persons may find this really painful]

Yes, it is painful. Damn me for not taking your warning. Urg.

For me, it's her rendition of "Ave Maria" that just blows me away...

[British]

I admit, i liked her "fallen angel" track from many moons ago, but, the jury's still out.

OK, you can't say I didn't warn you!

Actually, I usually hate all of these trendy remakes of great music from the '80's, but somehow this one worked for me. I guess maybe I felt that it was keeping true to some of the original Missing Persons work, very minimalist (I've heard them called "Missing Instruments"), and a dark mood like some of Spring Session M.

I think that the only other recent cover that I liked was Gary Jules' "Mad World" since it managed to be even more depressing than they were on The Hurting.
