  • Joe Cocker turned this into a big flashy wall of sound song-and-dance number. It sounds OK, but this version is how I think it should be played - it's supposed to sound like it's one man, one bottle of whiskey and one woman. He's singing it to the woman, not the stadium, and that makes this a beautiful, intimate song instead of a raspy voice shouting it to the world.

  • This version is so much more ironic, which is totally lost in the Joe Cocker version! The way Randy sings it is hilarious! Joe is a great singer but he can't pull off the irony intended here!

  • @MrRastaVibrations i agree cept randy looks liek a bit of a goober :) in the nicest possible way

  • @cjs33139 You know what's annoying?It's people who focus on the irrelevant,like his voice{Dylan's and Lennon's are so great},and not the writing.Keep watching American Idol and Family Guy.You're truly in Who Gives a Shit What You Say territory.

  • Baby, take off your dress ..,. Yes, YES, YES. But I left my hat on ... the ultimate slow-motion, striptease-him-until-he-scream­s. And, yeah, I gave him reason to live.

  • @cjs33139 

  • God, he sounds as boring as he does on Family Guy, and this is not some teenager. I am a 70s/80s child yet Randy's voice is annoying. I prefer Joe's version. Randy should stick to composing. 

  • Much better than Cats, I'd listen again and again! :)

    

  • Awwww, thanks post person!!
