I just heard this monstrosity on the radio. JC on a stick - I thought at first it was a joke but apparently some people think Jimmy's version of this Joni Mitchell classic song is worth sharing. I'm old and tired but this REALLY pissed me off.

Here's the original: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YuaZcylk_o

And here is some strangled angsty ****ed up version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri6bd4G-Aig

Am I so out of touch that I need to be put down?

If the answer is yes, I'm thinking I might be quite glad.

haha. He must be an acquired taste. I think it's terrible

No i'm guessing he will be quite divisive

Tori's version....gorgeous

Call me crazy, but if you gave me a choice between listening to both versions, I'd listen to the james blake one....



I'm not even saying its the "better" version, just more to my taste.

Crazy

But I really like Blake's version

He's done better songs, and it's not as good as Joni's original, but still! He's got a really good voice, and I like the stripped-back nature of his version

I like Joni's version more but James is a different kind of artist to her, I also like his version!
