The Damned Version
On the back of the commercial success of the Phantasmagoria album, in 1986 The Damned released their cover of the track as a single. They were rewarded with their biggest hit, when it reached number 3 in the UK Singles Chart, boosted by two different 12" releases. It was not included on any studio albums, but has since been issued on several Damned compilations.
MCA also issued the single in Germany, Australia, France, Ireland, Italy, Japan, New Zealand and South Africa.

Famous quotes containing the words damned and/or version:
“And this is Hell—and in this smother,
All are damnable and damned;
Each one damning, damns the other;
They are damned by one another.
By none other are they damned.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
“If the only new thing we have to offer is an improved version of the past, then today can only be inferior to yesterday. Hypnotised by images of the past, we risk losing all capacity for creative change.”
—Robert Hewison (b. 1943)
