Track 2 and track 8; co-written with O'Dowd and Hay - the latter also from Culture Club. |

| Her voice is really a bit dodgeballs during the transitioning sections and at the lower levels of her octave range.

It's like when Howard Goodall demonstrated how not to do harmonics, in that documentary he did about the Beatles. _________________ |

| Her voice isn't quite exciting me as much as her backing vocals do on Culture Club songs. Perhaps she should have stayed in the background. |
