Here are the Swedish girls' version of Suburbia. What do you think?

The sound is not bad... but I'd rather have the Pet Shop Boys perform their song.

Oh yes of course. The original is much better than the cover. Always! :lol:

One example is Go West. The original was made by Village people, but I think that Pet Shop Boys' version is much better.
The original:

The cover:

Though it was Pet Shop Boys who made this song famous and to say what you want about Sylvia Mason James. I think she is just to beautiful as the singing Statue Of Liberty. :-D

She's beautiful but I hate that style of singing. Louder/more notes doesn't equal better - it just sounds like a car accident.

They were good, but I prefer Pet Shop Boys. Why should they copy PSB songs and not have their own?
