I love this song from Spandau Ballet. I just downloaded this one by Fergie and Will.I.Am today. Though I am willing to cut B.E.P. some slack (I've always loved "Hey Mama"), I can't do it on this song. Will's rapping doesn't do much to the song except ruin it. The hey hey hey part just gets annoying. Fergie's vocals are average; the breathy parts sound fine, but her voice kinda cracks on the verses (for example, on the words "head over heels") or it sounds too nasal-y. I'm not too crazy with the percussions or the robotic voice that says "true" over and over. Sorry, B.E.P...you ruined a classic.
