As with the bulk of the tracks on Medusa, these cover versions are on the safe-and-clean side, but you can tell she loves the songs, which after all was the point of Medusa. “Heaven” here is the Psychedelic Furs song, by the way.
Surprisingly uninspired remixes on the second CD; I used to have the *proper* counterpart to the first CD (RCA as opposed to Arista) but I foolishly lent it to a friend a few years ago and it went astray.
