I'm not sure how this link is sound wise. But, I have the 1989 remix on a DJ Disconet 180grm Lp, what really strikes me is the sound quality of the miked background singers. Especially the male one, very powerful vocals! These old Disconet Lps are fierce!! Super high quality pressings, almost Mofi!

Listen to how the chorus "You are the only one, You are the only one" builds into "Surprise me tonight, show me that you care", the male is really pushing it out "Don't leave me up in the air", if this doesn't do anything, the youtube vid sucks, come to my house for the real deal...
