I have a hard time with versions like this. It seems there is more angst than hope - at least for me. The original soars and is energetic and vibrant.

But - not a horrible arrangement. Just not even close to the original either.

Agreed,
Still I find it amusing how famous songs can be seriously screwed up but still sound recognisable.

It's as if people want to turn these types of songs into Man in the Mirror.

IT's not bad.. I think it actually illustrates what great musical bones this song has..


.. and I swear that piano player is Moby's doppleganger..

I actually dig this. 'Course it could be because I am so SICK of the song as is, so the change is refreshing.

I think Boyce Avenue does the best unique covers of Journey material.
