Interesting, thanks for the info. Have you heard the version by Foo Fighters (of all bands)? It's actually pretty decent, though a little slow.

I got this cd single today and have to say it's one of the best PSB projects since the days of Cicero. This has a "Rent" kind of feel to it and the style has the PSB written all over it even though it's a Passions' song. You get the original radio edit, a very PSB sounding vocal extended version, a very PSB sounding instrumental extended version, a 80's version which sounds like a modern day 80's retro style version, and a dancier club version. Old PSB fans should run to the store for this one.
