[Anthony420542]

Evan can make anything sound like gold...

[Guitargirl5157]

I'd love tabs for this acoustic version.

[Sanchitoooo]

this' the original???

[chenjunyang]

this version is very simple which is nice... but really boring. no passion, unlike aguilera's!

[Juanch1x]

Xtina's Is Way More 'Beautiful' She has more Energy And More Passion

[Halo2glitchlover22]

Xtina's will always be the best. This version is nice too. Haters of Xtina fuck off.

[NewtonSalem]

This is great, but Christina's version is Way better.

[MyMitocondrialRomanc]

ac dc can sing beautiful in so amazing form, will be fantastastastic

[GlamStick]

this song is simply Christina's and no one could even come close to touching it like she did, She made this song, so please everyone stop lie'in to ursleves and him!

a.glam

[pelicanmouse]

@GlamStick Here hear !!

[bobvillain]

@pelicanmouse at least I can sing along and hit the notes on your version.....

[xreddragonx]

Aww man, did they really cover this abysmal song from such an abysmal "artist"? At least it was done in pisstake form, I could get down with it.

[LadyStardustVertigo]

@xreddragonx Aguilera is a great performer, calm down. She's not in the same league as damn Rolling Stones, but she's got voice, unlike whores like britney spears or whatever.

[xreddragonx]

@LadyStardustVertigo I think she sucks, you can't change my mind on that, sorry. As a big Lemonheads fan of course I'm not going hold back in voicing my disappointment about this.

[LadyStardustVertigo]

@xreddragonx I dunno, this whole album of covers is pretty bold. It has a lot of surprising covers including a bunch of pop songs!

[feuervogel2011]

@xreddragonx lol..xtina could sucks (which is your appreciation which I don't agree at all), but this is quite BORING..you will never get bored with christina, she manage to bring in every song her style and leave us with open mouth (my gosh da girl can damn sang)

[fieldpool]

beautiful...

[darrenwilson73]

Hey Evan - this is outstanding. You totally make the trackc your own and the vocals are so, so smooth. Great stuff

[Throatxwhores]

I kinda wish they did a diff christina song. this song is just over done and killed to death already. though they do a good job, just wish there was something different than something thats already been done already. but you can only blame the record label for their unoriginality not the band. *can you believe i almost wrote "THA" instead of the?*

[BettyBoom13]

both christina and linda perry worked for it ...and sorry but singing it's not just a detail..

[runninglikewind]

why credit christina aguilera with this song?

She didn't write it - she just sang it

Linda Perry wrote it

[alithomson]

This version by the Lemonheads just sounds so much more powerful than the Christina version... it's just, well, beautiful....

[klarissimus]

thanxx-always preferred that version

[phatmatt43]

@alithomson no shit .... way better

[indrofrancovillani]

@alithomson Yes,it's true.

[goranji]

beautiful!

[klarissimus]

@goranji thanx a lot-appreciate it!!for more great and beautiful music subscribe if you want

[pelicanmouse]

I never wanted to do this - gibby ( my producer ) insisted

then the label insisted I include it - I'm not so proud - but I think it's alright ... look out for my next lp of originals it's gonna be rad - evan

[bobvillain]

you should be proud, its a great cover and you really did make it your OWN. There's not many out there like you willing to risk covering a "female" song, that's one thing I've always most respected about you E

[Nghaka123]

@pelicanmouse THAN K U ITS BEAUTIFUL < Better dan Christina aguilera

[klarissimus]

aren't we all?<3

[SHOPATRBS]

I'm loving this cover!

[tooktuctuc]

I don't know what Evan Dando does all these covers when he is such a good songwriter himself. This is a pretty dire song anyway. I don't know why so many people want to cover it. Still, I can forgive this guy anything.

[klarissimus]

first of all let me state that I knew that the song was Linda's originally-a look at the title will convince you--the extract comes from the pitchfork review and it isn't mine --therefore all issues arise from there--but thanx for the comments--keep them coming

[15311]

i love it!

[eddievega77]

christina always stated this was one of the only songs on the album she hadn't written.....great song,in all its forms

[SAChopMaster]

I like Dando & Lemonheads but this is a pretty lackluster cover. No feeling at all to it.

[Jornaquin]

evan dando, legend

[klarissimus]

from the pitchfork review

[klarissimus]

t's almost ironic that the best cover here is also the least obscure. Beautiful" is becoming a standard of the 2000s; originally sung by Christina Aguilera, it's been covered by Clem Snide, the All-American Rejects, and Elvis Costello. But here Dando makes it his own, even if that means he makes it sound like it's playing over the closing credits to Empire Records. It's an ideal match between singer and song, a surprising moment that almost makes up for the mess that came before it. Almost.

[wkenston]

actually the song beautiful was originally written and sung by Linda perry; christina aguilera had covered the song after linda perry had died and had begun the misconception the she had written the song. the lemonheads had covered this song simply as a political exposure to show that linda perry wrote the song, not christina aguilera

[dylz]

what the hell? first of all, linda perry is ALIVE and still collaborating with aguilera. second, the first released version of this song was by aguilera; perry willingly gave it to her to record (she was the primary collaborator for the album on which it was featured). i don't think many people thought aguilera wrote the song, and she certainly never claimed to have written it.

[mackenzwilliam]

You are so dumb. Linda Perry is still alive. Christina Aguilera as stated many times that Beautiful was the only song on her stripped album that she did not write. Linda Perry was saving this song for herself as a comeback. but let some people listen to it. P!nk and Xtina. And finally gave it to Christina. Linda Perry though has sung this song live before Christina Aguilera ever new of it. The lyrics are a little different. Time in Linda Perry Beautiful to watch on you tube.

[Hellena1994]

Linda Perry ALIVE!!)))XD

[hexenductionhour]

Gotta say after reading the Pitchfork review of Varshons I was expecting slightly better. It's pretty good though.

[klarissimus]

although it is another Evan Dando classic I think it lacks in intensity compared to the Aguilera cover!

[imface2]

right, agreed. i love aguilera one still.

[wkenston]

but emphasizes the mature and beloved vocals that both dando and perry had in common
