I do like a reggae cover version, and they don’t come wonkier more out on a limb than this. Grace Jones’ voice is one of the most potent weapons on music, instantly putting its stamp on anything it imbues, and it’s strangely suited to this track. As well as this, the backing track is superb, elevated beyond the mundane by the woozy synth line, which keeps things going during Grace’s pained refrain. A match made in heaven.
