My wife doesn't like this song - she thinks it's anti - men. But I love it. I've always loved it. And Tina just gets it! What more could you ask for in a song?
I have a very diversified taste of many types of performers. I have always been a HUGE Alice fan. I'm also a big fan of power voices of any kind. I never thought I'd find Tina Arena from listening to the combination of Alice Cooper and Donna Summer, but there she wastied into both performers either singing with or covering a great song. What an incredible talent.
She has a beautiful voice, but I think she uses it in a pretty mediocre way. Nothing special, most singers can do such vocals. I think Tori Amos's version is much better, more powerful and unique, in spite of the fact that there is only one instrument in that version. But Tina is good too, I'm gonna check her other songs.
@testestest13 I've been a fan of Tina Arena for a very long time now. Her album "In Deep" is a package of powerful songs that showcase her voice in superb ways. Check it out! I would recommend "Flashback, Welcome to my World, Unsung Hero, and If I didnt love you. Back in the Philippines, I covered her songs and it's very challenging.

@TDS4UT Bleeding men are little boys! I love Armored Saint, which is man tunes,,but respect Angelic voices, there isn't much around us. Dig this Voice, It might be all we got!
Sorry, but you're wrong SuperGeofic,. It was written by Alice Cooper and Dick Wagner. The song was released in 1975. Julie Covington and also the GREAT Etta James both covered it in 1978. You can look it up if you don't believe me.
I really like this version, although it's such a great song, I've yet to hear a version that I didn't like (0:
@ch0pperPilot Thanks for the information. Wow! Julie Covington and Etta James. Like to hear that. It sort of misses the point when a woman sings it. The shocker was with Alice Cooper, dressed in drag, singing "come watch me bleed." That's Rock'n'Roll. Then men can see that they act like that. Domestic violence. Oh, now I get it. Tina might as well being singing "Ave Maria" here. She takes the whole point of the song and sugar coats it. She sings like Davey Jones of the Monkeys- in a dress.
nice job she does with this alice cooper number..but checkout etta james's version for contrast...funny how an older woman gives an entirely different feel..a more tired out edge to the song..like shes been around the track a few times and is really fed up
Blasfem ..."never heard of Tina Arena.."...GOD...Shes "only" ONE OF the best singers in THE WORLD., A DIVA IN AUSTRALIA AND FRANCE..awarded several times, Medal of honours by France president, and so on...Try to get knonw of her work then.. Bless you.
This performance is simply incredible. Everything about it just ticks all the boxes. Would love to see and feel this live, would send chills down my spine.
A bit bland. If you want to see raw vocal power and emotion and pure vocal STEEL, check out Julie Covingtons version. She was the ORIGINAL Evita back in the day.
his wasn't an interpretation, his was the basis, the lifeblood that gave this song life and meaning. Tina interpreted his words and meaing the best out of all the cover artists.
Taking on Alice Cooper, The Moody Blues, Celine Dion....this woman can sing the phone book and she'd get our attention.
