"When I got this album is was both surprised and disapointed that both the Radio Version and Dance Version of one of my favorite Sarah songs were so strikingly similar to the album version. Still, "Steaming" is, as I said, one of my favorite Sarah songs. Being a Peter Gabriel fan as well, the live cover of his "Solsbury Hill" was by far the most interesting part of the album. At first I wasn't particularly fond of Sarah's rendition, but after listening to it a couple of times I was taken in by the youthful buoyancy of her voice, which was perfectly accented by the minimal instrumentation. A worthwhile purchase for any Sarah or Peter Gabriel fan, although I'm not sure that I'd reccomend it to someone not familiar with their work."

Early Sarah has added bonus

"The Cd single of the song, Steaming, off of Sarah's first album, Touch, first plays the album, and extended dance mix of the single. The real treat of the album however, is the last track, a live cover of the Peter Gabriel song 'Salisbury Hill'. Definitly worth it!"

Actually, this single is quite funny

"This is an alright single, but I wish a live version of one of the songs off of "Touch" were on here. The radio version of "Steaming" is clearer and much better than the album version, whereas the dance mix of the song is definately 80's era (that makes sense since "Touch" was released in 1988). The Peter Gabriel cover of "Solsbury Hill" is cute, especially with Sarah's laugh at the beginning, but it's also funny to listen to."
