@frankensteinmoneymac PS...this was a reply to someone (I forget who now) Dont know why it doesnt say @so&so at the begining of it.....just didnt want someone to think I was saying this about the poster of the song or something! :) Great track!

[Claroqtem]

Could anyone tell me where this is from, or where I could get this? The only two covers albums that I knew of were "The Brave and the Bold" and "Ask Forgiveness".

[interpolluter29]

@bloggs4moms It's on the Guilty by Association compilation.

[jegulja]

oh god, this song is amazing...

[xozanna]

It's very nice and suits the song well but it's a total ripp off of The Knife: Pass This On

[xozanna]

The video is a rip off, not the song, I still like it though :)

[Secretlyanothername]

There's someone in drag dancing. So that makes them similar. In the same way as having a young woman dancing makes all pop videos similar.

But the themes are quite different - the 'Pass this on' video is about the sexual tension between the trannie and the young guy, and that isn't similar to what's happening here.

[dortiz12]

wow its interesting..... but what category did it win in not best voice foe sure.

[dragon11111]

Well dortiz12, I tend to take the view of the great David Berman when he sung 'All my favorite singers can't sing.' On that basis, Oldham is my favorite singer of all time. Whether or not you are moved by Oldham's voice, as I am, is a matter of your own success or loss.

[bullgoosesam]

And, of course, he can sing. On both a technical and emotional level.

[mrbollocks1979]

Oldham's voice, I found, was an acquired taste. But suddenly it hits you and the raw emotional passion in his voice strikes deeply. Very deeply. There's nothing quite like it.

[JC468910]

wow- i never like ANY remakes or re-sings of mariah's songs, bc nothing compares to the originals, but i actually like this one- its a bit bizarre, but in a good way!

[toostonedtocare]

ace!!!!

[Puckohue]

Nice cover. Sorry to see such a blatant ripoff of the video for Pass This On.

[urbanlegend3000]

that is amazing!!!

[mcmis]

Cool is all I can say...

[UncleAustralis]

Excellent..

[ppiass]

what a song!! It makes me just want to go out and buy every Mariah album.. This guy makes his singing voice a bit wierd though don't you think? Or maybe not..

Anyway what else is funny is the kanye west song with Oldham on it.. yes

[iehagy]

This video looks exactly the same as the knife video for "Pass it On" - what is the difference between one being in color and much better
