Objection! Your Honour, that is an unresponsive answer to the question

The question was in relation to 'classic trash' not just 'trash'

Actually I probably should not have said this as all I have got to compare it to is the version which I've heard when old Torvill & Dean were skating around the ice rink (probably not the best acoustics) and when Bo Derek was getting it on with Dudley Moore in the film 10 (but lets not dwell on my teenage memories again). Maybe I should try a better version,

I have given it a good listen to today and it is a pretty weird album which for some reason just makes me smile. Two thirds of the tracks (including the one you mentioned) are great and I just can't help but think that it is some kind of a mix between Tim Burton's 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' and a some Andrew Lloyd Webber production. The tracks which just fail on me at the moment are the ones where the woman is singing, but maybe they will grow on me. Thanks for the heads-up,

It's great, isn't it? Not sure about Tom Waits .... It was supposed to be Mephistopheles meets Beethoven (Again) Hence the name of the track
