I'll start with:
(1) Love Song: How Do I Live Without You?
(2) Artists: LeAnn Rimes, Faith Hill, Trisha Yearwood
(3) Preference and Link: Faith Hill
www.youtube.com/watch?v=QflsxFDDja4
(4) Reason: I think this is a wonderful love song and I love singing it to my husband every now and then. He tells me he likes the way I sing it best (he's prejudiced, of course), but he does tear up when I sing it to him, because he knows I mean every word of it.

Smile, written by Charlie Chaplin and performed by Johnny Mathis, Jermaine Jackson and ? It is apropos to life and the many ups and downs.-
I love this song too and Johnny mathis is in my vinyl collection -
@Theresa
I love "Smile" too. -
@TT
Oh WOW, I love that song and had never heard Faith Hill sing “How do I Live Without You”
Also fell in love with Nicolas Cage in Con-Air where the song was featured. He sure did work out for that movie. His body was so …………….. yumie is the word.
Oh sorry back to the Q.
So, it use to be LeAnn Rimes, but now “Faith Hill” sounds better to me, or could it be the hot video that turned me on more?
Gosh, I am finding it hard to decide now. : / -
I go with Faith Hill's version. there is something about contralto singers.
-
Ok...I agree
-
@celticmusicfan & AngieA
- I'm glad you liked Faith Hill's version. My husband says I sound more like Trisha Yearwood and he's right.
How Do I Live - Trisha Yearwood

I love it because it reminds me of College.-
@celticmusicfan
- Thanks for posting to this thread. I like Celtic Woman - Orinoco Flow better than Enya's version.

another one;
both sides now by joni mitchell(my fave canadian artist)
www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcrEqIpi6sg
i love both the version by judy collins and a duet between moya brennan(clannad) and paul young
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ob0mYdbFjdU
www.youtube.com/watch?v=CavaVZI_xDc
this song reminds me of the movie Switch starring Ellen Barkin and Perry King back in 1991 ...also the lyrics affirms life's strentgh despite all difficulties with relationships.-
CelicMusicFan,
Sorry man, I cant do the “Enya” rating. I love all kinds of music, but “Enya”, well….it’s asking way too much of me, it hurts my ears.
But your 2nd request.
I would have to say Judy Collins sang it better.
-
@celticmusicfan
- Re: Both Sides Now
I am familiar with Joni and Judi's versions but I strongly prefer the 1991 duet with Clannad, taken from the film 'Switch'. This song appeared on the 1991 Greatest hits album - From Time To Time. -
I know Angie...a lot of people feel the same way too, though I don't see how 'quiet music' can hurt the ears
-
Both sides now. Cassandra Wilson and Pat Martino
-
-
Awwwwwwwwwwww this thread is actually sweet. I mean really sweet.
And I CANNOT think of a dang song right now...
Sheesh.-
@wagerwitch
- Not to worry. When you think of one come back and post it.
-

True Colours / colors - as far as I know has been done by both Cindy lauper and phil collins. I actually like phils version better (pretty sure he wrote it too)-
- It's a beautiful love song, for sure. "True Colors" is a song written by professional songwriters Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly. It was both the title track and the first single released from Cyndi Lauper's second album. It was the only original song on the album that Lauper didn't help write.
PHIL COLLINS - TRUE COLORS (BEST VERSION)
www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmfqLOLCNi8 -
PHIL COLLINS, I didnt even like the song when Cindy sang it.
When Phil Sang it. It changed my outlook on the song. -
@AngieA
- I'm with you on True Colors. I wasn't into it when Cyndi did it either. I strongly prefer Phil's version.

I love "Anyone Who Had a Heart"

Dusty Springfield

Dionne Warwick ( you can't find a good audio of her alone on you tube due to copyright( the song was written for her by Burt Bacharach and Hal David) but her single version is great) this version is her with Cliff someone or another
www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2NeZB6gvuY

Cilla Black

the best known version outside the usa.

@cooper & celticmusicfan
- There are many versions of it that I can post links to but I won't do that. Here's almost a spoken word version.
Anyone Who Had A Heart - Shelby Lynne
www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuaHN1p8F9E
Anyone Who Had A Heart - Linda Ronstadt
www.youtube.com/watch?v=hd56aRCI4CU&feature=related
My first choice is Dionne's version -- hands down!
My second choice is Cilla Black's version, which I hadn't heard until today. And my third choice is Elvis Costello & B. Bacharach's version.
-
-
Did you check out maureen McGovern's version? That's also a good one.
-
I can't find hers but I just found Wynona Judd and Bacharach version it's pretty sweet.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOWIvQ0W4-U -
Mine's on CD
Been a fan of Maureen McGovern since the 80's after hearing her 'Can You Read My MInd' from the movie Superman(1978).Anyway, I love Burt Bacharach and I always buy records of his if there's an oppurtunity.-
I'll have to check it out, thanks for the heads up.
-
@cooper,
Out of those I like the way Cilla Black sang it.
@CelticMusicFan, I am with you here on Burt Bacharach.
Here's the link > Anyone Had A Heart

Its an awesome song -
OMG I love Elvis Costello. Thanks for showing us the link Angie. His version is exquisite too.

(1) Love Song: Hello
(2) Artists: Lionel Richie and David Cook
(3) Preference and Link: Both!
www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxVzkZLzoLU
www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UNwjuzYHCw
(4) Reason: I love this song and I truly like both the original version by Lionel Richie, as well as, David Cook's rendition, the rock beat he put on it was fantastic and I wish he would have sung it complete.
Great post TT!-
@deray
- Wow! Thanks for posting Hello. I like both versions equally too.
-
-
Another one:
(1) Love Song: I melt with you
(2) Artists: Modern English & Jason Mraz
(3) Preference and Link: Modern English, hands down!
www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuN6gs0AJls
(4) Reason: I like Jason Mraz a lot but, I did NOT like the version he did of this song for the movie "50 first dates" (sorry, I couldn't find a video of this version). The original song is a classic and Jason's version is a little boring.-
@deray
I have never heard this group or the song before. Thanks for posting it.
-
-
I think there are two existing videos for this Modern English song. One was done when it was a hit in 1985...another is a latter version , a hippiesque take on the video.
-
The hippiesque version is the Mraz version I like the 80's way better!
-
-
no the one done by modern english. not the mraz version because i heard that. the hippiesque version has the band singing on the field on sunflowers.
-
another one:
Can't Take My Eyes Off You
Originally done by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0IM7Mvg80w
My favorite version would be by Maureen Mcgovern
www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_G2ljrMTaU
I love this because it is so carefree, so pure and Maureen McGovern's version of the 1979 #27 adult contemporary chart hit is still awesome.-
Oh, I love that song! This thread is right up my alley and I'm having a great time just reading it. I'll have to do a little digging and see what I can find to contribute!
-

How about “Because of you” with Reba
www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-NnWHOUuKw&feature=fvst
Or by: Kelly Clarkson
www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCuGqIhUaJE
Excellent thread TT-
@Angie
- I like the lyrics in Because of You but Kelly Clarkson's voice does not impress. IMO she doesn't know how to sing and could benefit from vocal coaching.
-
Oh I disagree. I think Kelly Clarkson is a really good singer and probably the best to ever emerge from American Idol. -
- Hmmm ... I didn't see American Idol. I rarely watch the tube and don't know if we get that show up here. This youtube is all I have to go on. Perhaps I made a snap judgment and I should have reserved my opinion until I heard more.
-
-
I think BC is not working well right now...LOL
But I have extreme eclectic taste in music:
Here are a couple that I found and remembered - cause this was bothering me all night.
Tainted Love - Marilyn Manson and Soft Cell
I loved Soft Cell's version of it - but Manson did a rock up job.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTcPIAewhMg
above is manson
below is soft cell
www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cCI_XDQWb0
The song was originally Gloria Jones with Where did our Love go...
www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSehtaY6k1U
Which is, probably the BEST Singer Version....
I love this song because it's totally someone who is in love telling the other person that shape up now...-
I have an awesome mashup called Tainted Tainted Love with the Soft Cell vocals over the Gloria Jones music. www.mashuptown.com/2009/01/gloria-jones-vs-soft-cell-mashed-by-copycat.html Personally, I can't stand Marilyn Manson. The Gloria Jones version is okay, but Soft Cell really did the best job on this one.
-
I agree that Marilyn manson's version rocked more.
-
Dang Leg - totally rockin' on that one!
-
-
You Really Got Me
Kinks and Van Halen
And you know I love the Kinks over Halen ANY day... LOL!
www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvyDWGF290M
And this one is cool - cause I sang it to my current hubby and inserted the words Boy - for Girl - and did it at a karaoke party - before we got married.-
This is another of my favorites, for which I've collected versions. The Kinks own the song, but I do have a soft spot for the Oingo Boingo version. not-pop-jukebox.com/2009/04/you-really-got-me-kinks-and-others.html
-
Oh dude - totally forgot Oingo --- man - beat me now!!

(1) Love Song: When Man Loves a Woman
(2) Artists: Percy Sledge, Michael Bolton
(3) Preference and Links: I prefer Michel Bolton's version because I think he has a better voice.
Percy Sledge

Note: This was Sledge's first single as a solo artist. This love song is one of the top love songs played at weddings. -
It's MY Life-Talk Talk
Love this band!I realize Sarah McLachlan was alsio influence by this music when she was still in a New Wave band back in the mid-eighties.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9_1rqkrgok
Gwen Stefani made a version of this song.

(1) Love Song: Bizarre Love Triangle
(2) Artists: New Order, Frente, Stabbing Westward,
(3) Preference and Link: Frente www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ1c9ErCn7w
(4) Reason: She took the pop-ishness out of it and gave it sort of a haunting, melodic quality. It is simplicity in it's finest-
Oooh, yes. I love Frente!
-
Unfortunately I don't like little girl voices. I like my women singers to sound like real women and not like little girls, you know, how Annie Lennox,Sinead O'Connor,Natalie Merchant-strong distinctive voices....but musically Frente is a very good band.
-
-
How about the One Note Samba? I've never much cared for the Antonio Carlos Jobim version, but Ella killed it, www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbL9vr4Q2LU , except that she never got around to using the lyrics , and The Postmarks did a rather ethereal version on their album of cover songs last year. They don't have a video for that one on YouTube, but you can listen to it on imeem if you're a member. www.imeem.com/artists/the_postmarks/music/lhqwWpww/the-postmarks-one-note-s... Of course, I've got more versions: www.squidoo.com/one-note-samba
-
I like the Astrud Gilberto version .
-
i guess jobim is a greate on to look at here because his tunes are so good.
Ella did a beautiful version of Once I loved with Joe Pass on Take Love Easy

(1) Love Song: "Měsíčku na nebi hlubokém" from Dvorak's Rusalka.
(2) Artists: Renee Fleming, Anna Netrebko, Luba Orgonášova
(3) Preference and Link: Renee Fleming
www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1PMzQ8PuCo
(4) Reason: when I first heard this aria, I was thoroughly blown away...since that time, to me it is the definitive sound of a woman in love: it's a tune I've wanted to hear, even if just in spirit. -
Yes I like Renee Flemming's version.

(1) Love Song: The Rose
(2) Artists: Bette Midler, Aoi Teshima, westlife?
(3) Preference and Links: Bette Midler
The Rose - Bette Midler

Aoi Teshima - The Rose
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7vsIL3s6MY
The Rose - westlife?
www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjFfAxw5VRQ&feature=related-
Yep that's Westlife indeed. I do love the original which is from Bette Midler.
-
I think Aoi Teshima's version is a close second to Bette's.
-
-
(1) Love Song: To Make You Feel My Love
(2) Artists: Bob Dylan, Garth Brooks, Adele, Kelly Clarkson, and probably a few hundred others
(3) Preference and Links: Adele
To Make You Feel My Love - Adele

Garth Brooks
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tsl7qqWDiZo
Bob Dylan
www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ILrl-SPHtY
Dylan is a brilliant songwriter, but I just cannot stomach listening to him sing. I fell in love with Garth's version years ago, and thought to myself "pfft" when I saw Adele covered it. She absolutely floored me.-
I like Garth Brooks' version.

Whitney Houston's version - hands down!

Josh Groban

And for those of you that liked Josh's version best, here's a little extra treat for you.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJwNS-FPXOI&feature=related-
OK, now we're talking Broadway. I have a soft spot for Broadway. I don't care what anyone might say:
Michael Ball: Love Changes Everything
www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnLE0N87T6k
I know, totally cheesy, but man, I LOVE IT!
Aspects of Love is probably my favorite ALW musical.
I especially love this song:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=njkKkwDu0ZM&feature=related
The Vogueing party guests especially crack me up, but the song is just delightful. -
@Angie
Re: "The Music of the Night"
I ♥ Josh Groban's voice and chose his version. I had not heard Mi Mancherai violin before. She's so good that the hair stood up on my arms. What a beautiful combination! Thanks for posting that "little extra treat". -
@StillThinking,
Broadway Cheesy?
No Way, the only reason someone would say Broadway is cheesy is b/c they don't know any better and more then likely have never been to a Broadway Show before. Once you see a Broadway Musical show live, you are hooked. -
Angie you are preaching to the choir!
I love Broadway, both classic and the big pop operas. I always imagined myself playing Miss Adelaide in "Guys and Dolls", Eponine in "Les Miserables", or Roxie Hart in "Chicago".
However much I love opera, I don't have an operatic voice. I have more of a pop voice which is more suited to light Broadway show tunes. *sigh*
-
-
I know Josh is a looker. But Michael Ball is memorable to me.I love his deep mysterious baritone.
-
Meh ... Josh's voice gets my vote.
-
@timeThief,
I love Josh Groban's voice also and he has my vote as well.
SO glad you enjoyed Mi Mancherai as its one of my favorite songs he sings.
The first time I had that song I had chills all over my body as the music is truly amazing.
Here's another personal favorite from Josh> www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEGuAOHDKi0&feature=related

Love Song (broken heart): Hallejuah
Artists: Leonard Cohen, Jeff Buckley, Rufus Wainwright
Favorite version: Rufus Wainwright. Rufus's voice is so amazing and he's so emotional in his delivery.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmbQEQltOwM-
@stillthinking
I do agree with your choice. I prefer Rufus Wainwright's version. This is a great Leonard Cohen song. Unfortunately, it's been overdone by too many and needs a rest IMHO.
- Have you heard this version? I like Lisa's voice very much.
Lisa - Hallelujah - x factor 2009

-
Love Song: Our Love is Here to Stay
Artists: Gene Kelly, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Johnny Mathis, Joni James
Favorite: Ella Fitzgerald does the least stylized version of the song. It's all about the emotion and the lyrics.-
I like this version best.

The Continental(from the 1934 film The Gay Divorcee)-Maureen McGovern from the album The Academy Award Performance:And the envelope please (1975).This song became a hit in the UK charts in the same year peaking at #1.

by Ray Conniff singers
www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_x25PKfCmo&feature=PlayList&p=2508F84B6413E209&pla...
I will go with Maureen McGovern's rendition. She has a fine elegant voice.
I was in High School when I fell head over heels with this stuff. -
Here's a big challenge - If you had to, could you put them in order?
1 - 5
#1 Being the best -- #5 as least
Song: "Nessun Dorma"
Sang by:
Pavarotti

Jose Carreras

Paul Potts the unknown
www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k08yxu57NA&feature=related
What do you think? -
*scratches head with all those choices*
1.Pavarotti-His voice , my goodness, nothing could describe it's awesome power!
2.Bocelli-Yeah very good but not as better as senior P.
3.Carreras-He does have strength at lower registers but his upper ranges are trying.But I give him extra points for charisma.Maybe even better than Bocelli.
4.Potts-He somehow wavered at the final part and his voice thinned down.
5.Bolton-Enuf said. I am a purist -
Ahh My friend, you are 100% in all of your comments!
-
thanks Angie hehehehe. And you are 100 % for gathering all those choices !

Because The Night-Patti Smith
www.youtube.com/watch?v=0brHGJ6xqbk
Bruce Springsteen
www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8JcWD1rHVo&feature=related
10,000 maniacs
www.youtube.com/watch?v=H14R4ZsMM0E
They're all very good-the song is very good, co-written by both Patti Smith and Springsteen but I would take the 10,000 Maniacs version. There is no beating Natalie Merchant's voice.-
Celtic, you would be right again.
Her voice is much better for this song, though Bruce sure does make it exciting with his backstreet band……no? We have to give him a close 2nd.
OK...just for that, I am going to have to get another song for you to review.
Stand by.

Song: I've Got You Under My Skin
Performers: Frank Sintra, Steve Lawrence, Eartha Kitt, Mel Torme, Louis Prima, Diana Krall, Michael Buble, and many more
Favorite Version: Sinatra off his "Live at the Sands" album
Link: www.squidoo.com/got-you-under-my-skin for a bunch of videos and samples-
Ok…Sinatra is just “original” so he gets my vote.
I love Michael Buble, and again its one of those things when it’s the band that makes him sound a tab better. BUT, with this song he sounds like he has mouth full of marbles. ?
Sinatra / Bono - just funny
Steve Lawrence was like 2 beats ahead of the music, so he’s out, others didn’t come close. -
@legbamel
- I agree with Angie & Celtic. Frank Sinatra gets my vote. However, I'd like to share another version with you.
I've Got You Under My Skin - Katharine McPhee (live)
www.youtube.com/watch?v=T20dgPm6M-k
-
-
Sinatra gets my vote too. I grew up listening to standards to it is not surprising when one develops discriminating taste.
-
Yup, The Man With The Voice gets my vote.
Being Welsh does give him favor.

Now you made it very difficult for me to decide. Musically I'd take Joe Cocker's version.I love it and it is raw being the original.Vocally I'd go for Tom Jones. And yes he is Welsh so I am partial on that LOL.

Was going to do the song “KISS” which was done by “Prince” or rather the artist formally known as Prince. But found out that that he actually took off all of his music OFF the internet.
Did you know that?

There is something so tempting about this song...beautifully written and so intimate.
I like Bruce version...but heather also has that sensual touch that gets under your skin
