Recently, Susanna Hoffs released a collaboration with Rufus Wainwright, a cover of The Turtles' "Happy Together."
After listening to this, I thought it worked great as a duet. Sonically, it keeps the feel of the original version but also modernizes it.
Check it out and see what you think.
Susanna Hoff's latest album is really good.

Bangles / Walk Like An Egyptian (12"; 1986); Ein ikonischer Hit der 80er Jahre. Der Song der Bangles ist bekannt für seinen eingängigen Rhythmus, die markante Melodie und den charakteristischen Gesang. Die Kombination aus Pop-Rock und einem Hauch von Exotik macht den Song zu einem zeitlosen Klassiker, der auf der Maxi in drei verscheidenen Versionen zu finden ist. #TheBangles #SusannaHoffs #EternalFlame #Pop #PopRock

When You're a Boy is the debut solo album by Susanna Hoffs. It begins with the Billboard Top 40 single "My Side of the Bed", includes the track "Unconditional Love" (co-written by Cyndi Lauper), and ends with a cover of "Boys Keep Swinging", the 1979 song written by David Bowie and Brian Eno. The album's title comes from the lyrics to the latter.

Today’s listening is ‘When You’re A Boy’, the 1991 album by Susanna Hoffs.
Susanna’s first solo album was produced during the dark days of The Great Bangles Interregnum of the 1990’s and is a great, poppy-rock listen.
Mind you, with that voice, she could sing the telephone book and I would be transfixed!
The album title comes from the David Bowie song ‘Boys Keep Swinging’, which she covers on this record.
