If you're sad enough, as I am, to instantly recognise the moment from 1980s celluloid history* in the pic above, then you're going to want to download this mp3.

Yep, our old fave's been remixed for the new millenium into another electrified dancefloor stomper.

And here's the original for you purists.

7/10 (9/10 for the original)

*It's the final shot from The Breakfast Club, when Judd Nelson's character punches the air in triumph.

Not a bad sophomore effort from the russki lesbos, but errm, kinda sounds like an outtake from the previous album. Nice chorus.

6/10

When Prog Bands Turned Ghey

Look, I AM planning to get into their critically-lauded 'proper' 70s stuff, but as a child of the 80s, this stuff was the real "Yes" and "Genesis" to me.

Forced to aclimatise to the MTV Generation and a massive downswell of interest in 'prog', these bands recorded shallow, clinical over-processed 80s pop. I love it.

One my fave tunes of '05 remixed into an electrified dancefloor stomper by some french fags.

Pretty good.
