Can You Feel It?

V

Island

WE SAY

Wading through an album of remakes that support Discomania, a cheesy Saturday night ITV programme aired recently, wasn't the most appealing of tasks. But among that album of tracks that are so good you'd hope anyone would have trouble ruining, the update of this Jackson 5 classic shone through. Of course it's sacrilege etc but then you're not the 9-year-old niece 'we' have who adores it. It's now a double A side with their Hip To Hip single.
