Huh...I wonder why? Funny Carina doesn't sing it like Roland did on the Hurting but you have no problem with that...curious as to why...RME. Funny but it appears that the actual writer of the Song...Roland Orzabal seemed blown away by Lauren's version even tearing up and saying "wow" Do you stand by that justification when it comes to Carina singing Woman in Chains and Badman's song? Her interpretation is nothing like Oleta Adams and she embellishes where she is unable to hit or hold the note properly. I have a huge issue with that when she sings those songs that were clearly meant for a singer with a much richer and more powerful voice.

​@@tinalulumack378 I'm not sure if I'm reading this right, but from your message it seems you are almost insulted that someone would like Carina's version more. Tastes simply differ. I never said I like it more because I think she sings it like Roland does, but because to me it fits the song better. It's great if you or even the original creator like Lauren's vocal performance better, but that has no bearing on which version I enjoy the most. To me Lauren "over-does" it on this song, which takes me a bit out of it. It's good that there are different version though for people to get into. I haven't heard Lauren's version of WIC or BS, but I can imagine that she kills it in those, as they are different beasts than STC, and require different vocal performances.

@@riverrage no I'm insulted by your characterization of Lauren's additions to Suffer the Children. I was pretty clear...but I will say it plainly Carina's voice is weak and her voice does a complete disservice to the legacy of the Oleta Adams era of TFF. And listen many times black artist are criticized for "over doing it" It's a standard racial trope used to discredit the vocal skills of black artist and I'm calling it out

@@tinalulumack378 I don’t understand why you keep bringing up the Seeds of Love era, when I’m clearly talking about Suffer the Children, which I’m sure you know is from The Hurting. Would be more productive to stay on topic instead of going off on irrelevant tangents.

@@riverrage Because...its relevant to the overall performance. If we are being technical Roland sang Suffer the Children on the Hurting not a woman. You critiqued Lauren's performance negatively and used racially charged language to do so...Carina's version is a deviation from the original version by Roland as well. I have no problem with you not liking Lauren's interpretation of Suffer the Children it was your language used to make the justification. I just felt hell if you can criticize Lauren for her version of Suffer the Children I can then say what I dont like about the two songs I love that Carina sings but I hate. Lauren's extra is what you dont like about her Suffer the Children...well I hate a singer with a weak voice, inadequate vocal strength and skills singing those songs.
