SUCH A SHAME
Released on March 25, 2002, “Such a Shame” was the second single from Sandra’s album The Wheel of Time. This track is a cover of the 1984 hit by the British band Talk Talk. Sandra’s version brings a fresh, pop-oriented interpretation to the original song, showcasing her ability to reimagine a classic in her own distinctive style.
Produced by Michael Cretu and Jens Gad, “Such a Shame” features a modern production that aligns with the early 2000s pop landscape while retaining the emotional depth of the original. Sandra’s vocals add a new dimension to the song, making it both a tribute to the original and a standalone piece in her discography.
Although “Such a Shame” did not achieve significant commercial success, it was appreciated by fans for its bold reimagining of a well-known classic. The single’s various remixes also catered to different audiences, from radio listeners to club-goers.
