I'm a huge fan of Cut Copy and I know thay are majorly into Tusk-era Mac and Lindsay's stuff... Their song "Strangers In The Wind" beautifully and subtly samples the guitar lines from "Over and Over" - well worth a listen. Their album is called "In Ghost Colours"
This particular track is neither a remix or a cover version. Its just an excerpt from a "Mixtape" - basically a recorded DJ set where tracks are manipulated and mixed to flow together. In this case Never Forget has been speeded up ever so slightly to match the tempo of the following electronic track called "So Electric" by a band called Lifelike. Thats why it sounds a bit odd and not quite like Christine singing...
Anyway - my main point is that Cut Copy are brilliant, the perfect mix of indie and electro music and their tunes are fantastic, even if more than a little reminiscent of New Order at times!
