I disagree that the bluegrass\country/folk twist given to this great song is a bad idea. A straight ahead note for note version would not be creative in my opinion. The banjo and lap steel has been scrubbed from modern country in favor of faux nasal twang and phony American jingoistic pride and redneck stereotypes. This is closer to Carter Family than it is to Gretchen Wilson's bullshit redneck girl pop. All that being said, I like the original better as I do in most cases of cover versions.

Holy moly, this gave me goosebumps.

@Montypytho17 I kinda agree. Making a cover yours is something to covet, but I don't think this is a good example. This is a sad song, this makes it sound almost happy. That shows me that she missed the emotional mark of the song altogether.
Music is an art, and art is all about emotional expression.. so despite her really nice voice, this is a fail to me.

fuck, her voice is just so angelic

Country is not my cup of tea, but Amy's voice is so nice, you can't diss her cover.
-
I love covers like this. Instead of playing it the same as it was made, she changed it. Shows so much more talent.
-
This is my favorite version of this song. The original irritates me but this makes me want to sing along.

certainly nothing wrong with a banjo....blind melon, neil young, led zep, the eagles, REM, phil collins, primus, the who, the hollies are all "rock" artists who often used a banjo
Ya give me the brand and model number of your camera. I'm not a big fan of this cover but I love the camera!
