It's not a Pet Shop Boys tune (or cover) if there is no orchestral stab.
My stars, will you look at that. Don't even have to put the YouTube link in brackets or nothing.

I always end up thinking of Janet's "When I Think of You." Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis loved the orchestra hits.

I was listening to Grace Jones' Island Life today, and Slave To The Rhythm has some good orchestra hits in it. Of course, that was Trevor Horn and his Fairlight again.
