The pallid, skeletal angst of Joy Division's 'She's Lost Control' is given a blast of Vitamin D by Sly & Robbie on an unlikely Carribbean holiday and stretched out even further across this aptly named "Long Version".
Grace Jones' detached, aloof vocals are a perfect match for the detachment of Ian Curtis' lyric and the tune bumps along on a delicious dubby skank.

Haha! I was thinking about this the other day, sure that I'd heard a very different version to the one on the four track EP. So much so I almost didn't recognise the version on the EP compared to what I had in my head.
