The drummer on "Get It Up For Love" was Gary Mallaber. Mr. Mallaber played drums on all cuts of the album, "Hard Candy", except for one song, "Valentine". The drummer on that song was the great John Guerin.
I love all these comments. "Shiina Ringo's ver. is just noise! Nothing is different! She has nothing to Ned..ect..." yeah ok. I've listened to Shiina Ringo's stuff for a long time and she has been in the business for over 10 YEARS! Trust me, Ned's original will always be a classic but it to be covered by Ringo won't kill the groove in it. Really people, do some research on an artist before hating on them. btw Ringo's isn't just noise, she is pure god when it comes to composing music :)
The album, "Hard Candy" is my favorite, I'd grab it first in a fire. ALL songs are great, thanks to Steve Cropper for killer production duties and yes, an all-star band backs him up, members of Average Whlite Band, Eages, Linda Ronstadt, Toto, etc. He plays live occasionally in LA. thank you for this!
i don't really like the shiina ringo version, she doesn't do much with it other than bump up the tempo, i'm pretty biased as i love this track and that whole 70's west coast soft rock "Yacht Rock" sound
i dig this but tata vega's version is my shit.. 2 really diff tracks tho. one for the headphones and one for the club...

The perspective of a Shiina Ringo fan? This version is the best. "Koi wa Maboroshi" is far from Tokyo Jihen's best song.

@Hakuromatsu I like so much more Tokyo Jihen's version too!♥

@KayakingCabble i think the Tokyo Jihen version is a cover of the cover done by Tata Vega. at least it sounds closer.
