Probably one of the few coverversions I think better off than the original.

Absolutely. It's hard now to even listen to the original Tears For Fears version.

And I'm now listening to the new Daughtry CD which I'm liking a lot.

Quite nice... I was a bit put off by the "goat vibrato" though. Antony from Antony and the Johnsons can pull it off, but not so many others imo. Is that something she does all the time?

Yeah her voice is like that, and it's odd but beautiful I think. Jolie Holland used to be part of this band, and her voice is just as distinct but less 'warbly'. She's also worth checking out:

Lovely, I hadn't heard, or knew that Waiting Around to Die was a cover version. Now I have a new musician to look into, and from that clip I reckon I'll be loving his stuff Thanks.

Currently listening to:

Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee - Key to the Highway
