Neneh Cherry has a version of this song, that it's also great in my opinion.

@Calandre, It's not exactly a cover, both songs always were very similar to me, I have a very good ear for these things, so one day I searched, some people say it's a cover, other it's inspired, others that it's plagiarism, I don't really know, the trip hop beat it's the same in both songs. The lyrics has some similarities too.

One song reminds me inevitably to the other. This is another great song by Neneh Cherry :

I started listening to Dummy as it was a soundtrack on the GOAT lesbian series of all time, The L word. It makes me think of Shane, and Beth and Tina, and Papi :wub:

Can't believe I missed this thread, should probably come to this section more often.

'Strangers' is my favourite song by them, then again I like Dummy in its entirety but that song is sick.
