I love the Massive Attack track! The video reminds me of the second verse in George Michael's "Waiting" when he sings:
Now I'm a rock fan but this?......nooooooooo!
Angel is definitely in my top 5 favs. It has a unique element of being constructed from a simple baseline through to a very powerful peak then gets deconstructed back to it's baseline....genius.I love the Massive Attack track!

"All those insecurities
That have held me down for so long
I can't say I've found a cure for these
But at least I know them
So they're not so strong"
Sam Smith is way up there on the creepazoid scale. For me, there's just something about his eyes that don't seem trustworthy.
As in keeping with the rampant LGBGT agenda we are currently having rammed down our throats let's now listen to the track once Sam Smith has put it through the homofier. Let's be honest, Donna Sumners version was terribly hetro, which is fast becoming retro.
I much prefer the original there. Although Wilson has a beautiful rich tone to her voice I thought the timing was a little off, like she had sang it acapella and the music was added on later.....it may be a jazz thing I dunno.Sam Smith is way up there on the creepazoid scale.

I actually like this song as it was more pleasing to the ear than "Girls Just Want to Have Fun":

I can appreciate what you're saying, as jazz seems to be musical improv. Cyndi sounds like she's singing about about a past relationship, whereas Cassandra sings as though she learned about the her's right before she got on stage.I much prefer the original there.
