I still have an entire E180 VHS tape I kept solely for this.
I once wrote a blog entry on reworked songs. This is what I wrote about this number: -
"Here we have a complete reworking of a 5 piece rock band's pop hit into a minimal brooding drone which gradually intensifies to a defiant shouter. There are nice contrasts: -
P.J. Harvey's motionless cool demeanour and Björk's fiery inability to stand still,
Björk's rudimentary keyboard accompaniment of droning chords and PJ Harvey's loose, distorted choppy guitar playing,
PJ Harvey's restrained sardonic vocals and Björk's unrestrained free-form improvisatory vocals.
I think their performance turns the whole song on its head, and what seems a cocky male complaint about consumer and sexual gratification becomes an almost feminist statement of resistance to that attitude, ending in the final shouted line, "That's what I say!""
