Suzanne Palmer FAME

So, Suzanne Palmer covered FAME, the immortal classic by Irene Cara. We have posted an abridged and low res version below (I cut out the first minute of a boring bass beat.) I am not sure how I feel about the track, in all honesty. While Suzanne's diva like voice sounds in great form, even if like the slightly lesser version of Kristine W...

When Suzanne covered FASCINATED, I couldn't get enough. She added a great dark edge to the track and her vocals really made it her own. FAME, for better or worse, has a very gay circuit club vibe and I doubt the track will catch on outside that circle. Because of the circuit beats, the song sounds dated and it hasn't even been released yet. Maybe when the song is finally released I will have a different tune. Let us know what you think!
