This cover of The Cure's 1987 "The Perfect Girl" (2015) by Mareux is outstanding. I can't believe I'm only just hearing it now.

The Motion did a "retrowave" remix just this Spring that's pretty cool, too. I'm hearing both versions for the first time tonight, so I'm not sure yet which one I prefer. Oh, the remix doesn't have the vocals. In that case, I think I like the 2015 one better, although the instrumental remix is cool, would be good for a soundtrack of something.

I don't understand. Who is Johnny Weir, and to what are you referring?

Apologies! Weir is an American figure skater turned commentator who bears something of a resemblance to the vocalist of Soft Cell pictured above. He provides NBC commentary with Tara Lipinski for figure skating and ice dancing so I thought of you.

Ah, okay. It's been many years since I followed figure skating, and in any case I'm more familiar with the Canadian skaters. I had a few non-Canadian favorites, but that's reaching back to the '80s and '90s and early '00s. I rarely watched NBC commentary, as they focused more on Americans and less on Canadians and Europeans.

I'm in a Johnny Clegg mood. I didn't realize recently that he died of cancer back in 2019. I've been a fan of his music since hearing "Dela" in George of the Jungle. Currently listening to "Scatterlings of Africa", and trying to sell myself on buying his biography.
