| It has plenty of synth-funk stylings going on, but not enough soul.

Just a bit of a mess.

| This has a bit more about it.
In a very Human League sort of way.

That D. Bovvie fellow has a lot to answer for.

| This could be much better if the production wasn't so clinical and cold.
The driving, squelchy synths should be the star of the show (a bit like "Boogie On Reggae Woman"), but they're swamped by all the tinny, clattering syn-percussion noises.
