Though busy wrapping up their fourth full-length—due out early next year—Dirty Vegas found some time to bust out a cover of Duran Duran’s holy hit “Save a Prayer.” The UK-based duo, comprised of Paul Harris and Steve Smith, blesses the classic ‘80s song with a scintillating, dancefloor-ready version. Steve wails about a casual encounter, while a stabbing chord progression flirts with the original synth-driven riff. The result is a succulent slice of four-four paradise.
We got our hands on the premiere of this dirtied-up house tune, which is being offered as a free download below. The DV gents were kind enough to give this one away as a token of their appreciation for the continued love and support. It certainly beats the hell out of most of the stocking-stuffers you’ll get stuck with this Xmas.
