  • The best sweet and sour best song in the world

  • I love the way she moves passion and sweet

  • Well She has always done it for me but the sound coming out of what I assume is a bomb shelter very cool

  • Superb. Chrissie has done many great things, but this may be the best.

  • Classic song <3

  • this song is the of pretenders!

  • Great song and with a meaning as well, rare these days

  • Cá....lembrei de você e resolvi passar por aqui....saudades....Pça Liberdade....!

  • All right be in by 9:00pm :-)

  • Outstanding!!! I like both, USASTRATCOM-EUR Prum, FRG.

  • Such a simple video...so powerful

  • fuckoff - this was great!

  • Yer.

  • The very best version all the others are pretenders....

  • OUTSTANDING ~

  • great soul music. deep soul music is always the best in all genres.

    metalica the rock band whose best song many people consider to be is fade to black because of that guitar soul

  • hey this kills me every time

  • Killer sound!!!!!!//love it babe.

  • Amazing...

    

  • Annie do it better ...for me

  • If The L Word were still on, this version would be the theme Song to Shane and Jenny's self-destructive Romance because Jenny's mentally ill and crazy behavior might drove Shane away and might cause her to act crazy in a psychotic way lol :)

  • And God said "Let me put the voice of a angle in this woman and she shall be called CHISSIE HYNDE" and we thank you for that.

  • @TheMindskinner This was the first version I heard of this song. I thought it belonged to Chrissy, she does it so naturally. But I've since learned it's a much older song. I've checked out the older, and newer, versions, but I still love Chrissy's version best!

  • They may be Pretenders but they sure Persuaded me!!! Great cover!!

  • NOBODY can sing like Chrissy Hind, & that's a fact jack.

  • I had no idea The Pretenders sang this song, I love their version!

  • CLASSIC TUNE :)

  • beautiful song

  • Ali G in da House, Big it up for Ali for bringing me here

  • No one could ever do a bigger rip-off than this!

    The Pretenders - how aptly named!

  • If you do a cover...you have to beat the original.

    1-0

  • Chrissie Hynde set the bar higher for singers. The only link to her (especially when she's doing the ballads) is Dusty. They BROKE the mold after her. Today's pop stars are all about costume changes and dance moves....

  • wow, makes me eyes water, even after all these years...

  • @amramjose It makes my eyes water too - but for very different reasons... :-(

  • Nothing sounds as good as the original by the Persuaders 1974 all the way, After that 2nd place to H town. Everybody else is just Pretending

  • This group stole the name the Pretenders after the original Pretenders group broke up. The original Pretenders started in the late 60's and re-assemble in the early 70s with a new female singer who recorded with them for seven years. I know the whole history because I was with them when they recorded their hits on Carnival Records. Go listen to Hearts Were Made To Love, I'm The One Love Forgot, I Call It Love...all recorded by the original Pretenders.

  • the pretenders hmmm must be pretending they are the persuaders

  • to the 2 people who dislike this get off youtube you don't know anything about music go play your shit and leave the good stuff alone in short ,go fuck yourself.

  • difference with two versions is that its sung by the opposite sex, thats all, both wonderful

  • favorite pretenders song and video

  • I love the Pretenders, but the Persuaders version is my favorite. I love how it strikes the perfect balance of black humor... it's really unique. I like to hear the reggae version!

  • I love the Pretenders and while this is a great cover, I like the original more. It's just hard to top the original, it's got something that just hits me... right there.

  • Good, but prefer the Persuaders version. The reggae version is in a class of its own.

  • love this. doesn't get any better. thanks for posting this.

  • Chrissie Hynde didn't just sing - she preached.

  • this song brings back good and bad memories,i dedicated it to a guy i shared a house with in attadale( R.H.E) i loved him so much but we didnt seem to get it together to well and every time i hear it it hurts a little,but what a powerful voice she has and she sings it with such passion,no one could do it better . . .P.R

  • great job !

  • Persuaders version is WAY Better.

  • howie long on drums

  • The best remake of a song ever. Sorry Persuaders.

  • @thepoopie2 not enough emotion in this song brass in pocket was better than this

  • Perfection, enough said.

  • shes not that good looking but theirs something sexy as hell about her

  • @jakelvis100

    C'mon. She was hot in her day.

    So much in fact that I fell for a underclassman because she had "the Chrissy look". LOL

  • My all time favorite song.

  • Peruaders did the original, But This version, you cant touch it, Chris's voice,well it sings for itself, A song about physical abuse...very emotional for me....really resonates in my soul...

  • you can tell she lived this song.

  • cool!

  • Chrissie has one of the finest voices in music ever!

    I can't think of anyone, female or male who sings better or more expressively.

    A plastic technician's singing. e.g. Celine Dion, is f'ing bad joke compared to Chrissie, the real deal!

  • Fantastic version.

  • bloody fantastic song and singer..chrissey hinde i love ya.

  • They generationally adjusted an age old vice of love...both played it for their times w/ perfection!

  • Que hermosa cancion , que dice que hay una linea delgada entre el amor y el odio, es de la mejor de the pretenders, de ehcho compre el disco solo por esa cancion. gracias por poner este video...saludos desde mexico

  • @elchicano2010 Estoy en acuerdo contigo, este cancion trais lagrimas a mis ojos, el cancion de abuso, y me affecta mucho....yo siento todo que has tenido abuso en sus vidas, Solamente el Senor puedes sanar nos, Amen...........

  • a few months ago, my dad and i went through his old albums because i looove record players & listened to alot of them . this is one of the songs he had me listen to. i fell in love with it (:

  • This is one of those songs I can listen to over and over again and never tire of it. Chrissie Hynde has such a beautiful voice.

  • I thought the presuaders were good. But this is another level. Bravo!

  • I totally love the live performance of this song by far. You can tell they honed it in - in this studio setting. An exceptional ballsy heartful cover.

  • totally awesome!

  • She radiates sexiness.

  • @dirtydiana365

    Pffft, get a life loser.

  • Great song, great voice, great lyrics

  • there are NO pretenders about this song!!  It's the REA Deal. NOONE could come together and do it better in my humble opion.

    Michael 12 Bar blues

  • Still my very favourite version of this song!

  • @lunanoir69 Hell yeah! Love it baby!!!

  • Não desmerecendo The Persuaders nem Anne Lennox pra mim esta é a melhor versão. Chrissie Hynde arrebenta !!!

  • Class..all class! :-)

  • pareloogje

  • no-one could ever do a better version than this .

  • @mufcdarren O i disagree, this version is good but the original better!

  • I heard this cover first before hearing the original because my mum told me that it was cover when this came on the MTV back in 1984. And then I heard the original from my mums 45 collection. Love this cover, Chrissie Hynde sho can sang, now!

  • try - Annie Lennox Cover

  • great song with a sad text.

    thanks for posting

  • Gave up looking for this months ago, SO GLAD YOU ADDED THIS!  By far, this is the best version out there . . . Chrissy ROCKS IT!

  • one of my favorites from the 80s. thanks for sharing!

  • I love this cover of this song; it's an easy song to over-sing, but Chrissie Hynde got it just right.

  • One of her Best !

  • Totally sublime - hope this stays on the tube

  • Chrissie Hynde is a gift to the rest of the world.
