- which could be the motto for every taft-punker and bedbanger-loving electro-kid around the world around the world but no, it’s a line from the reissued and (surprisingly) the old Friendly Fires single as well. Oh man, I love the Firendly Fires. So gentle, elegant and devinely ethereal. The disco in heaven.

Other than the Firendly Fires, the reissue features reissued vocals: meaning that there’s just a hint a male singing on the new one, the vocals are done by Erika from Au Revoir Simone. And FF couldn’t have chosen better, this voice is actually so perfect that they should join their bands to Au Revoir Fires.

The third bonus, if I may, are Aeroplane who did a really cool job remixing the song. It reminds me of Hercules and the Love Affair or something ‘authentic disco’. You know, Aeroplane is the Belgian two-piece who has the Whispers single and who remixed Fool for Love, The Shortwave Set, etc and they are quite close to the whole new disco sound of Valerie and some Australians.
