This is by an American Singer Melody Angel and for me its the best version of the song apart from the original!. She doesn't over do the vocals, she keeps it simple but effective. She really feels the lyrics, it was a really emotional and touching performance. What do you guys think, would you agree? Or maybe you there is another one you think is better.

Not really. Plus how can you sing a Sam Cooke song. Sam Cooke is not just a singer but the greatest singer that ever lived. His voice was something more then just being able to sing a song. If Sam cooke sang a slow song it was amazing. Certain slow songs he would sing worked for him.

No way. The best cover of this song has to be the one by Seal. I do agree with the 1st comment, though. I'm really picky with this cover because it is possibly my favorite song of all time. She's not bad, though.

I love Maverick Sabre's version more!

This ^^

Its not simple or effective, its over sung.
