ill tell ya, i have a theory that 1 of the reasons that the seasons work in 66-67 did not chart higher,ie opus,skin,tell it beggin marianne, flowers will you still is you all were strung out on drugs by then,ya know heavy into the gangha, weed smoke hash ect.ect.ect.shame on all of us!
Just heard a pretty good remake on a TV show. Knew it was too good to be pop music... well, post-1970's pop. But have to thank (what i now know to be) 'Madcon' for remaking this amazing song & introducing it to a new generation devoid of good music.
Listen for the very quick Ya as in Ya Walked away ....and WARNED me then ...that easy come and easy go and it will end.....The girl warned him that easy come and easy go and it will end!!!!! So, he realizes it and is BEGGIN' to go back
@Poolprayers : Thank you! I'd love to see a clean copy of the lyrics. (I was thinking it was "Won't even stand the devil's chance to win my soul," but I'll have to back and listen again. It won't be a chore. :) )
@jaydeebee69 .I think there are different words sung over the years. Like most singers and bands do in order to make their performances a lil fresher So, You may be correct!
Fell in love with Madcons version and said to my husband this sounds like one of our generations songs!! Then we found out it was a Frankie valley song who we saw live in concert five times!! I LOVE BOTH
Heard this song from My Grandpa<3; Then my friend whose a DJ sent me the Madcon Version; All I gotta say is thank God for this song, 'Cause it gave Madcon their first US hit; Both are great, I gotta say I prefer Madcon's abit more lol.
Yeah, yeah, you all talk about how Madcon ripped this song off when half of you would never have known about the original without the remix. Both are good, and both have their ups and downs.
The only reason I know about this is because of my parents lol. Music seemed better back then, I think that's why I like playing Fallout 3, even though I know that that's music from the 40's, its still awesome.
The original is better, truly sounds like he's hurting...more believable...no offense to Madcon (their version is great in it's own right), bc without their cover I'd still have no idea this song existed - *tips hat*
Who really cares which version is better? And obviously Madcon did not plagarize. It's called a cover, and they had permission to do it. Perfectly legal.
yeh it was legal, but it was still crap. what annoys me is that the Pilooski mix was a cult hit in 2007, but didn't get enough radio play. Then madcon cashed in and got lots of radio for an inferior version.
i think this version is more soulful yes but i think the rhythm in madcons version is much better because its revised i think they did a good job remaking it..
I dont think Madcon gave a lot. The beat of madcon take the same metric-pattern as this one with actuals synths kick/clap/snare. Nothing special in fact ...
cmon yall this version is like 100 times better, this dude sings it with so much more soul and feeling, im a a b boy and i dance more way more funky to this version cuz it just has more feelin to me
REally I DIDNT know that this song is originally of frankie valli. It is fuckin awesome . I thought Madcon composed it!!! Really awesome I like it 5 stars!!!
Very sweet... I enjoyed it. How did you get him to change colors? Very Tony Montana- looking. So cool. And who says he's dead? Frankie is still here. He out lived his first wife, his stepdaughter, a natural daughter, James Brown, Elvis and Michael Jackson. He just turned 75 on May 3rd and shared a birthday with James.
The original is always better, but i think it's good that they create newer and more modern versions of such great song, because then my generation can listen to Madcon singing Beggin and become interested in who sung it first. It kind of keeps the old stuff alive.
What the fuck is Madcon?
This version is much more better . <3

Newest version by Norwegian Pop band Madcon. It is not bad at all. French DJ Pilooski made a remix from the original Frankie version.
But the best cover for me, just as good as the original
was by UK band TIME BOX. Extremely cool.
