I agree. I always loved this song, but after getting the cruise commercial a few times and singing along, I started to realize it's not just the song, this version has its own vibe. I love it lol. I had to look up a full length version.
Everybody comparing the original to this. Both are great in their own way. Without the original, this would not exist. The original had to be good or nobody would have bothered to cover it.
Fun Fact: Most people prefer this version to the original is because it has NO harmonica in it. So imagine if the original one didn't had a harmonica, people would've liked the original a bit better.
This version of Karma Chameleon beat Boy George all around, for me. I love Drew Love's voice and I heard him first on the cruise ship commercial, on TV and I just was taken by Drew Love's voice and the beat and what sounds like steel drums and the background singing.🤩
It does not beat Boy George at all, it's beautiful in it's own right. This voice and the laid back arrangement are so different that a direct comparison just doesn't work. I saw the commercial too.
@@kmstraker It's not whether it's better, or not, yes. It's a matter of my liking this version. I was never a fan of Boy George, or this song when he sang it, is all. I don't tend to be a fan of anyone. I either like a song, or I don't. I just like the beat, the rhythm in this song a lot.
@@cuinthevalley1941 I like it better than the original. Of course, I wasn't a Boy George worshiper. I like everything about this version and it does make me happy to hear it.
@@ashleelauren5257 I don't have idols, or icons. I go by what I hear, is all, and I loved this rendition when I heard it on a commercial, so I went looking for it on RUclips and found it. Why is everything a competition, these days? It's a matter of what someone likes.
I don't think you have to put down the original to love the new. Boy George's looks put alot of people off,but his voice was great. The new boat redo is amazing. I love hearing new people, this guy is wonderful.
I seen the commercial I heard the song and I had to look up who done it and I have to say you done it a hundred and 10% better than Boy George thank you

It’s not about which version is better. This song is just a different vibe, and takes you to a different place compared to the original

This song is on a few MAJOR commercials.. I was surprised not to see at least a billion views on this one. Honestly. Great tune
This version was literally mezmerizing. Can’t help myself to replay ❤
This song version makes me happy
Original also makes me happy, wish this was longer
@@ZoniN425 me too. Both are very good
It feels like a really happy celebration song, especially at 1:52
I love both version's,but this one makes me happy and he has a awsome voice. Does he have this out on a regular video and not just a commercial
Virgin Voyages brought me here
What’s killer is the horns at the end. Absolutely thrilling. But it’s all nice. Saw Culture Club arena show in 1985 & it was like this
The original hits a special place in my heart, this one reminds me how far i've come since that time :) I love them both
I love tropical music so much I listen to it during the winter

I swear I fell in love with this song! I would make a vacation video with this in the background ❤
This song reminds me of one of my favorites….. Somewhere over the rainbow…… lol I love the ukulele!😂😂😂😂😂
Skies are Blueee
This singer has a voice of an angel 🎼🎤🎶🎶🎶🎶

Love this version as much as I do the original !!

...heard him in the commercial as well.
great singing voice 🎼🎤🎶🎶🎶🎶
@@dennisdemark8151 Yes!!! I was brought here by that RUclips commercial. It just matches the winter cozy, breezy vibe 🥰

@@mawmawvee this is actually what I was trying to say but you said it much better.
This is the cover I’ve been waiting for! You nailed that triumphant ending! Much love! ❤
I don’t like remakes. I adore this.
Boy George and the boys would be very proud of this beautiful voice and redition 😊
Super good take on this old classic
Is it just me or is this version better than the original
it's just you

It’s a wonderful rendition, but it’s not better than the original… Boy George is an icon

I know Boy George is proud. Takes me back to the 80's.
I absolutely love this version
Way better than the original
This takes me back to when I went on holiday to go on my first cruise.
Love your voice bro!
So mellow. I love it.
Love this song

This songs makes me happy and I always dance when it comes on. I hate dancing.
Love this remix
I love, love this! 🎶💃🏾🎶💃🏾🎶

As much as i love George's voice, This was great!
I love this song especially on the Disney commercial
I didn't know the cruise commercial is for a Disney cruise.
Beautiful
Where is the live performance
This Song Almost Copied An Whistle And Rhythms Of A Mi Kis Falunk (The Our Little Village) An Hungarian Dramedy Series.
I seen the commercial I heard the song and I had to look up who done it and I have to say you done it a hundred and 10% better than Boy George thank you
He can sing and is one sexy specimen of a man 😋😋😋😋 which ship is he gonna be on 😂🤣🤣😂🤣
Stolen Valor. Give the props to boy George, But goddamn this one is good.
NO. THIS IS NOT BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL! NICE TRY THOUGH.
Can't stand him
This is literally the worst cover of any song, perfectly captures the pointless and dead emptiness of today.
Took an already bad song and somehow made it worse.
