Erasure's Other People's Songs is, as the title states, an album of remakes. For the most part, they don't stray too far from the originals (although there are some exceptions to this), but do have that identifiable Erasure sound. Therefore, while the remakes aren't usually something which will wow people, they're quite good and worth hearing. The only one about which I wasn't crazy was "Goodnight," which, while pretty, dragged a bit. As both a fan of good remakes and a fan of Erasure, this album was a must get for me. Those who enjoy the Erasure sound will likely find it at least somewhat satisfying.
It's tough to pick standouts, although I do love their versions of "Walking in the Rain" and "Video Killed the Radio Star."
