    At the beginning of Amy's Glastonbury 2007 concert she calls The Zutons one of her favorite bands and credits them. If there was no rivalry between them and she was classy enough to praise them, why are so many comments concerned with not only expressing their favorite, but so often find it necessary to put the other down. Amy is arguably one of the best female singers and greatest performers and she calls them one of favorite bands.
    Everyone should calm down. What's the difference which version is "better"?

    This version and
    Amy's version are completely different. This one is more rock while Amy's was more soul. Therefore it's clearly logical for people to like one over the other since everyone had a preferred genre. I thnk both are really great in different ways.

      Harry Greaves but the same goes for most covers that have surpassed the popularity of the original song, for instance when you search “hurt” you almost never see nine inch nails, but Johnny cash instead, “I will always love you” shows Whitney Houston not the original Dolly Parton, make you feel my love never pops up as bob Dylan but you see Adele .. just the way it works

      @Mastaace 9 років тому

      +Michelle Herrera It would be like comparing Toots & The Maytal's Monkey Man to Amys... or the Clash's.... or Reel Big Fish's.
      Original is the slowest,
      Amy's is the most upbeat,
      RBF is the fastest/hardest,
      Clash's is the grimiest (i think its produced at a lower quality but it gives it a distinct 'live' sound)
      I'll have my own favourite of the different ones, but would never say one is 'better' than the other.
      I had listened to the Amy version a LOT over the past couple years, this is the first time I actually looked for the original.. and I'm surprised at how much I do like it despite it sounding SOOO different. Still probably prefer the Amy version, but that's just blatant homer-ism on my part... this version is still pretty kick ass!

      When speaking of Power Pop then "power" doesn't always mean crunch. It's in the arrangement -- horns and percussion in this case.
