OT: Love Is Alive and its covers

Classic Gary Wright song. Just discovered how many bad covers there are of this. The Olivia Newton John clip is eye candy for the guys.

Jimi Jamison did a cover of it on his "Empires" CD.

I should add though that Jamison's version is great!

Thanks for the nod, listening to it right now. You're right, that's a good cover. Definitely sounds Survivorish.

Towards end its kinda got the whacka whacka guitar like the Shaft song.

Hey -

I think JSS did a cover of that with "Eyes" - in fact, I heard it last night on the way to work! It's on "Windows of the Soul"!

As great as Olivia Newton-John looks in that clip, even better is the comment about 4 or 5 replies down from the guy talking about sex on the stage.

I think Joan Osbourne's is the best and that's not saying much. LOL
