    My english teacher used to play this song on an old tape player. He used all of his soul and emotion while singing and dancing it in class.He even used to draw circles on the blackboard to make us understand the deep meaning of the lyrics.I heard this song randomly on radio yesterday and this memory (which i didn't even know I had) came to my mind so spontaneously "like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind". I even remember his sad face as if he felt some kind of nostalgy while listening to this song. I can't explain why I commented this story. Sad memory but I'm glad I recalled it...

    Steve was the perfect actor for the movie. In fact HE IS THE MOVIE... Pierce Brosnan make a remake at 90´s but he didn't have the cool charming of Steve MCqueen. Alison Moyet sings beautifully.

    The original ‘The Thomas Crown Affair’ , when Faye Dunaway was stunningly beautiful and Steve McQueen (RIP) was so handsome !! Classic remains classy even after decades.

    Good smooth voice. An interesting alternative Harrison's. A slower tempo which makes the (otherwise rather short) song last longer (value for money). BUT-the change of lyrics............The new lyrics are good in their own right but if I'd created this finely crafted gem, I'd be jarred off with the "tampering". If it was just about the gender change (which isn't necessarily an issue these days anyway) then just change "her" to "his". Probably just me though.

    Out of all the versions I've heard of this song Alison Moyet does the most moving rendition. She sings it nice and slow with the emotion of an artist who understands the emotional depth of the song. With the orchestra backing her she uses it as a back drop unveiling a rich tone of a chapter that reflects the movie it came from.

    The amount of people commenting here who obviously haven't seen The Thomas Crown Affair. The footage is the obvious choice for this song.

    When your happy you enjoy the music. When your sad you understand the lyrics.

    Rarely does a song combine graceful acceptance of death and genuine passions for life so perfectly like this one. And this is my favorite version. Many thanks.

    Truly one of the most haunting songs and lyrics ever written. This is probably the best rendering. Very poetic.
