    Soul UK Press quotes
    'an album that is both timeless and contemporary and blessed with a voice to die for' **** The Sun
    'Knight's taste for a cover version is impeccable.... A brilliant soul singer' David Quantick, BBC online
    'A Musical Masterclass' **** Daily Mirror
    Beverley's own versions of 13 classic UK Soul tracks including songs by Soul II Soul, Jamiroquai, Omar, Young Disciples, Roachford, George Michael, Junior and more. DVD features Live Concert Film of Soul UK plus interviews with Beverley and many of the original artists.
    Welcome to Soul UK, my celebration of some of the home grown artists and soulful tracks that have inspired me. Some of these artists have had enormously successful careers, others have had glimpses of success, and others have never really been given due attention and respect. All these songs, artists and writers have in various ways contributed to my own career in music, and deserve to be recognised for cutting a path that enabled me and every other British Soul/Urban act without exception to walk more easily. This is why I have made this album, it is a labour of love, and my tribute to heroes both celebrated and unsung. Beverley Knight

      As for me, I prefer the random melodies and melisma that Mariah added to her cover of this song.
      And all in all with the added whistle note, it is a true ear-gasmic gem. If you didn't, try listening to Mariah's version (Me.I Am Mariah... the Elusive Chanteuse album) from start to finish so you would know what I'm talking about. Even the late Mr. George Michael appreciated what Mariah did to the song. :)
      As for this version, I think she became very aggressive in her approach to this song (climax), which is why I prefer Mariah's version more.
      But Beverly has great voice. More like Aretha with a touch of Beyonce (I'm not sure why I hear a little bit of Beyonce in her voice, maybe it's just me)

    It's funny, I've heard this song in the past but sadly didn't really appreciate how superbly written it is. Unfortunately, it took his passing for me to look up his music and stumble upon this beautiful gem. Now I have it on repeat. It has a soulful/bluesy/rock vibe to it. The arrangement puts me in the mind of other great hits like Aretha's "Natural Woman" and "Aint No Way". The pleading tone of the vocals reminds of a more recent song by the X Ambassadors "Unsteady". I also can't get enough of the line: "I don't want to learn to hold you, touch you!" Without that heartfelt line, this song would not be the same!

    • @arsenalmanic
      @arsenalmanic 7 лет назад +6

      similar to me. I'd heard of it in the past, but it wasn't one of George Michaels songs i was most familiar with. It's sublime! Been listening to it several times tonight. His version still can't be touched, although this is F A N T A S T I C!

    Just saw a George Michael tweet about Mariah Carey's recent cover of this song, so being a George fan I thought I'd have a listen. Got a few seconds in and I had to revert back to this cover - Mariah totally ruined it! Only two people can sing this song in my honest opinion, the man himself and Miss Beverley Knight!

      Lux Lux Deluded MC fan detected. Actually, Mariah wishes she (currently) had even half of Beverley's vocal abilities. Mariah's current condition is TERRIBLE.
