RE: [BlindYouth] Heaven 17 cover The Human League



I'm new on the list so really shouldn't be saying this - but the fact that
Heaven 17 are covering old League songs more than a quarter of a century after
they were first released demonstrates just how embarassing most of the output
from both parties has been since the split.

Love the version of Party Fears Two. BEF always bought out the best in Billy
Mackenzie.

I agree with Janean. And as of now, H17 still haven't anything good since the Bigger Than America, which was a welcome return to something worth listning too. ...
