This is a song everyone wants to voice. I appreciate all the versions I've heard but the original version I heard on an AM radio is a truly magical event to me
A white woman singing a song about racial oppression to a white audience. Don't get me wrong. It needs to be done, but the optics could not be worse. The 80s were unaware of so many things looking back.
absolutely, I have always loved Cyndi Lauper but a chainsaw going through my skull would have sounded better. Very glad that the bass guitarist showed her how it's meant to be done :)

Great job. You did a wonderful version of one of mystery favorite songs. Thank you.
Nothing compares to The 5 Stair steps version.
I don't think most of us from the 80's realize just how incredible this lady is! What a terrific voice!! A great band!!! And an amazing presence!!!!
She is awesome this is an awesome version the other version is also well get over it
here the acapella feel helps express the deep meaning of this anthem of redemption
I just got here because I saw the show "Defiance" and the video from Beth Orton.
@VoodooIrons Rite!! It's the only way to listen to it. It's a good tune :)
"Someday, we'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun."
