THE ASSOCIATES -Heart of glass

I find this  Associates single recently on other blogs and I want to post it. "Heart of glass " was the hit song from BLONDIE (1979). I have some problem to decide if the ASSOCIATES cover version is better than the original or not. For sure Billy Mckenzie's voice give to this song a special feeling. Two versions so different but both so beautiful. One of my favourite song from the unforgotten Billy.
Heart of glass was included in The Associates 1988 album "The Glamour Case ".
Here you have both; the original version from Blondie and the Associates cover. It is up to you to choose which you prefer:
