The moaning at the beginning of the song is not Shirley's voice; it's Madonna's! In 1996, Nellee Hooper and Marius de Vries remixed "#1 Crush" for the soundtrack to Baz Luhrmann's modernised Romeo + Juliet film adaptation. In addition to downplaying the guitars and reworking the percussion and synth elements of the song, Hooper added a distorted vocal sample from Madonna's 1995 single "Bedtime Story", which he also produced.
Proof that a good song, performed well, is all you need. Drummer keeping a solid bead with an inexpensive electronic pad, basic instruments, paired down arrangement - and an amazing voice of course, and it's just as good as the slick production from the record. This version actually has more soul. Nice.
That female moaning sound in the start isn't in the original b-side. Is this some other woman doing this sample? I wonder how the band reacted to this change, if it wasn't their own idea.
I remember listening to the hell out of this album as a teenage. Still holds up!
Their debut was better and not by a little. This one disappointed me.
@@spacejockey4746whaaaat?

I always associate this song to the Romeo+Juliet soundtrack (a masterpiece imho)
Such 90s vibes!
Thanks for posting
the soundtrack still stands the test of time
What a beautyfull voice god!!!!
Crazy how Butch Vig (super famous producer of both Nirvana's Nevermind album and Smashing Pumpkins' Siamese Dream album) is in the band.
How is it crazy? He's the band's founder.
The craziest thing that was a knock against him for so long. WTF really
One of my favourite band ❤️
I still have the original cd 💿
Same
So freaking good
You can’t get more raw than this ❤
mesmerized; what a stunning performing, and the bass.....

I thought the album version had the lyric "I'd go down on you" on it? Anyone else know?
She must choose when she decides to sing that lyric, I’ve heard it in different versions also.
Wow
I will always love this song. So sexy. ❤

These moans are from Madonna's song "Bedtime story.
Terminators are so versatile
the keyboard player has the CD
BUTCH VIG!!
🇸🇩🇸🇩🇸🇩🇸🇩🇸🇩🇸🇩
Shoulda let her stand up without those pesky headphones and give her the lead she needs. Let her Rock.
💕 I love the 80's 💕
This was the 1990's.
80s 😂😂😂
Except this is a 90’s band. 😅😂
Ahhhh..90’s
This is a 1998 performance of a 1995 song, your righteous affection for the 80's notwithstanding. 🏴❤️😎
I don't remember this song at all
Shirley was crying. If you pay attention you can see the tears in her lashes.
Amy lee 😍
Amy Lee????
She is Shirley Manson 😊
Bruh...
