Erasure redid a version of Evelyn Thomas’s High Energy. They released as part of the Fingers & Thumbs (Cold Summers Day) single back in 1995. I think the Erasure version is definitely right on. It sounds very similar except for the difference in the technology behind the making of the music. The Erasure version has the cute synth pop beats that Vince Clarke is known for and the Evelyn Thomas version is true 80s hi-nrg sound.
What do you think?
High Energy (Hi-NRG Extended Mix)
Check out Evelyn Thomas in the video for High Energy. Quite fun. I’ve never seen it before prior to writing this post.
