    Not fair to keep comparing this to the original, she is singing this live, along with a single electric piano in a cramped small room. Pretty amazing considering.

      I love the original, but the Bextor belted it out of the (literal) park - I thought a studio performance would be clear and better, but go check out her in the park, Phenomenal.

      she comes pretty close to the known studio recording.
      Though this song doesnt need the tremolo in the voice, but the punch Carly Simon put in it, IMHO.
      Anyway, this is a version I'd put on my playlist.

    @aesthetikate 9 лет назад +14

    Sophie Ellis-Bextor covers a lot of people in performances mainly, and tries to express that it's a tribute to those originals that she grew up with. And to those who shaped her into the artist she's become, like Carly Simon... Just because an artist covers someone they admire, doesn't mean they're trying to compete. Now, if she were trying to re-release her cover as her own single? How about, it sounds good for a cover... let's take it for what it is, and not mark it up or down with all of these "original" comments. It makes a lot of people sound like purists, and I'm not sure why they would come around to comment if they didn't understand that. It's not better, it's not trying to be. It just sounds good.
