2.78 min. | 5.0 user rating		 One day last year in 2009 I received an email from A&R at Decca Records asking me to come and sing at their offices, (having heard my other cover of Wicked Game with my brother, here on Youtube) and wanting a female vocalist for a possible project. After that I was then booked in at Universal Recording Studios in London one day in May 2010 where I recorded this track, sounding more along the lines of the original.
