I think that cover is awful and sux all the life out of one of the best songs of the 80s. I'm so over boring electronica/club tracks featuring drag queens (although that person may be a transsexual) who can't sing so instead talk their way over a bunch of noise. I mean, Divine didn't have a great voice, but at least she could carry a melody, and released some hot 80s hi nrg dance tracks (same with Pete Burns). RuPaul also sang, with a better quality vocal. And Boy George was the epitome of a fabulous vocalist.
