I rarely post, and every other post has been me raving about amazing music. Not this one. Not tonight

This cover is shameless junk. A horrible, horrible, thing. What a great song to destroy this way, Aaliyah would roll in her grave. Its a mess….

I was never much on new age Rap/R&B. I just recently got into The Gossip and bought the Live in Liverpool DVD/CD where I first heard this rendition. I have a completely new respect for this song. I was trying to find a link to post for someone else and found this recorded version, which does it NO justice. Live is AWESOME. And for those slamming The Gossip, at least they play and write their own songs.

[...] With that said, you can understand my excitement, due to the nostalgia factor, when I stumbled upon a cover of the song by The Gossip on one of my favorite music websites, Pretty Much Amazing. Beth Ditto does the song justice and keeps it mellow without going crazy with the vocals as she can sometimes do. This is probably my favorite cover since Lady GaGa’s rendition of Viva La Vida. Apparently The Gossip has been performing this cover at their shows for a few years now. Whatever, it’s new to me! Head over to PMA if you wanna snatch the download. [...]

I love this site and have had a number of friends become fans (you’re welcome), but this is the worst posting ever. This is the most soul-less , painful , karaoke level version of a CLASSIC song I have ever heard. This is truly an embarrassment to Aaliyah and hope that they never try to cover anything from Aaliyah again!!

Kate, I think you’re confused. Not only could it have been terrible, but it is, in fact, terrible.
