Jane was like the … female Prince for a short while. Very hip, still powerful and intense music she made.

So very very excited about this. Love this song and the album it came from . Have never heard any of the remixes of this song… Do you happen to have the other 12″? Would love to have all the remixes. Thanks so much for sharing this.

This is one of those “blast from the past” as I remember hearing this FK remix on the old Hot Mix shows in NYC back in the day.

I so love being reminded of a track I totally forgot about. I love this singer’s look besides the great song. So anxious to hear these remixes. You’re always delighting us Paul with great musical gifts!
