The difference for me is that one is by my favourite band and the other is by a band I cannot stand. Any way on the subject of MTT that cover by Emmy is proving quite popular among the younger folk. I was in a club last week and it was the one that got everybody out dancing. Of course I'm always saying, well did you ever here the original and am invariably met with the reply "But didn't they write it". By the way I have to admit that I have come to quite like it myself although my bias is probably impairing my judgement. I also recall being in a club in London two years ago and they played a remix of Lets Stick Together. I presumed it was the remix that appeared on the Ultimate Collection as I hadn't heard it at that point. However after hearing this UC remix it turns out to not to be the same. I remember the one in the club being quite good and everyone singing merrily to it (the girls all doing Jerry Hall). Has anyone ever heard of it?

These 2 titles have been not available for the last few months. And I doubt these 2 discs would go out-of-print as they're the most popular titls from BFRM catalog. Glad to hear about the remasters though.
