Clarke / Bell 80's talent meets the nighties....

"A mixture of remixes from'Cowboy' and 'Pop', live tracks and new tracks. The synthesizer magic of Erasure is made even better by the addition of some carefully placed bass beats, with the live tracks showing they have real talent. 'First Contact' (yes, as in Star Trek)is a scorcher. Instrumental version is hidden track 11. Buy It!"
Disappointing

"The product that is sent does not match the track listing as seen here. The CD I received only had four tracks. I was very disappointed with this purchase."
Brilliant maxi-single for a great pop song!

"Rain Plus is so obviously a fan release. Being that it is a maxi-single without even the original version of the song (gotta get Cowboy folks or another version of Rain single) there was no chance for this song to chart in UK. However, that doesn't mean this single isn't worth buying. In fact, this is probably the best maxi-single I've seen in years!Not only do you get some great mixes of Rain (my personal favorite is Blue Amazon Twisted Circles Mix), you get two mixes of In My Arms and a fantastic remix of an Erasure classic "Sometimes". Also you get 3...count em, THREE live tracks as well as a b-side. "First Contact" was written for the Star Trek Next Gen film of the same name. Its a great song and the fact that you get it and the instrumental version as a hidden track make this purchase worth while. All in all it may seem expensive...believe me it's worth every penny you spend. A great single from a great band!"
