REALLY like this. love the original much more, but it's a vocal addition that actually quite works.

This works much better than I expected it to, really like this, Becky's vocals sounding fabulous again.

wow.

the original version of this is one of my favourite songs of the year and this version does that version justice. I thought there would be a vocal version for its inevitable commercial release, looks like I got my prayers answered that it didn't have rapping over the top of it. sounds like a proper chart smash! I mean like future #1 vibes. yay for Heldens and nice to hear Becky Hill on another dance hit after 'Afterglow'

We've got this for now, I really love this track and Becky Hills vocals are brilliant!

It's out on June 22nd and I reckon with good airplay I could see this being a future number one!

Given that 'Gecko' is such a classic heart.gif, I was never going to be thrilled with a vocal version. huh.gif sad.gif

This song is fantastic! After 'Shake That', 'Hackney Parrot' and now this, I am really loving the music FFRR is releasing dance.gif

I'm warming to this version of 'Gecko' now biggrin.gif, although the vocals over the drop is still wrong! drama.gif

The vocals over the drop are wrong on so many levels, but so long as the track's a hit, I don't mind!

I agree, but I think the problem here is creating a radio edit that's less than 3 minutes and doesn't allow the key elements if the original to shine which is a shame

Better tbh. Becky Hill's vocals on the singles just don't work anywhere near as well as Bebe's for me.

I think the track is much better without the vocals
