"Slow Release" is, accidentally or not, a good summation of the whole.

I'm still trying to get my hands on the stems for this so I can do an hour long Prins Thomas-style extended remix of this song.

on first listen: completely superfluous but my goodwill toward robyn means it's at least not offensive? no idea why she thought slowing it down was a good idea. somehow this is the first time I realized the line was "no style rookie".

Slowing this down was a ruinous mistake.

Very superfluous. Totally not smokin’.

The only way slowing it down makes sense would be if it was slowed waaaaaaaaay down, like 4 times as slow and turning it into a drone poem

this would be a perfectly fine second b-side.

it's ok but no thanks. i've been caning the original lately. that guitar figure in the coda is one of my favorite things about it.

oh man...
well, i'm listening to the original now. which probably wouldn't have happened today otherwise.

No slow version could be my lover.

This song would seem impossible to re-interpret, but then I would have said the same thing about "Accordion"
Cherry Thing was ten years ago!

Was excited about the prospect of a new Neneh Cherry album, but I doubt I need this. The Robyn cover, as noted upthread, was meh.
