@ladyvelkor There's a difference between saying that one song or one version of a song is better, and saying that one person sings it better than another.

First I'll say that publicity due to this album is how I discovered Renee Fleming and I'm better for it, fantastic voice. That said, this just feels so weird. I guess because when I hear the original, it's in the context of the album, which I think is about kidnapping and stockholm syndrome. From what I've heard of Dark Hope, it doesn't showcase Renee's voice well at all, she's singing out of her range and there isn't the intimacy of the original artists' recordings. At least she tries though.

I don't even know who Cedric is and haven't heard him do it...so...I'm impartial. Coming to Renee with an un-biased ear, this is a great art piece and she did a great job with it. People don't "own" songs. Art is free to be interpreted by everyone.

pretty faithful cover actually. didn't expect that.
-
Good cover, alas, slightly dissapointing (or my expectations were too high, probably).
-
@segdase but cedric can't sing nearly so well in a live setting.
-
she has a great voice, but sounds retarded singing in english
-
i like cedric's voice(:

OK. So here we have Renée Fleming with a full lyric soprano voice, who won the Swedish Polar music price. Conductor Sir Georg Solti have said of Fleming: "In my long life, I have met maybe two sopranos with this quality of singing", All this according to wikipedia. Now don't get me wrong, Renée does a good cover of this song. But what do we say about Cedric when we state that he sings it way better?

@segdase ...we're saying that there's more to music/art than technique? :)
