it sounds weird, gotta say im a little disappointed. Are you sure its not just the flux version without the crowd behind ? Sounds really close although i gotta say i havent heard that version in a long time.

by the way, the holy grail of music was We Can Dance Again biggrin

It was certainly not the flux version; some notes were adjusted as well as the background music was totally different. Actually, I do prefer the flux. However you must agree that the coughs and things are great minuses.

I used to wish for a clean version of We Can Dance Again after hearing the 1994 royal live one, but hey that wish was granted. You know something, when it wasn't, I had to listen to Chavette's cover just for a clean one.

Uh that version by Chevette was awful - however what gets me was how were they able to cover a song that was never released at the time, with it only being played live once?

Well, it was the same record label, they probably had access to the sheet music and even the demo.

Or they had access to it through the - whatever you call it in england - company that register music, rights to it and stuff.

Danny Hunt (from Chevette, later with Venini) was a mate of the band, so they probably got the lyrics / possibly the demo through that route.
