!Dios Mio![:0]

Me thinks this is gonna get a whole lot worse until these vapid shallow dime a dozen post-Disney/American Idol cloned wannabes run through and shamelessly defile the lion's share of our beloved 80's music lexicon.
Craptastically Abysmal..[V]

Um...that's the lead singer of the Pussycat Dolls, not a Disney clone or a wannabe.

I wonder if our parents absolutely despised the delicious cover version of the Supremes "You Keep Me Hanging On" by Kim Wilde in the 80s.

Whatever excitement I derived from this song is now gone forever.

[/quote]Actually, I may hail from the 'our parents' age demographic you're referring to.[:)]

Never really cared for that cover version, having found Kim's cover of the Motown classic to be a tired, formulaic and blatantly mainstream departure from her 'Kids in America' era material. [|)]

In retrospect, <a href="http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=A6kZXsc2HBo&fmt=18" target="blank">this 2006 redo</a> she did with Nena may be marginally better, IMHO that is..[;)]

Sheridan and The Dolls manage to suck the life out of that and other 80s classics like "Tainted Love". At least Marc Almond gets some props here before they ruin his song.

BTW there's now code available that makes imbedding the actual YouTube VIDEO just as easy as posting a link. Welcome to 2008.

^^^FWIW: Here's the typically clueless captioning provided by the OP^^^

[i]some [b]fluffy guy[/b] starts the song and then powww the pussycats come in...very sexy performance!Just look and have fun

[/i]

I'm not at all surprised by this anymore...[xx(]

P.S. Your pasted code might need some tweaking, the vid link is presently not visible.

I like Kim's remake. It shows a lot more bitterness than the original, and I think the song calls for it.
