Now, I expect a certain amount of photoshoppage on album covers, but a google image search of how she looks these days shows a completely different woman!

sounded alright to me
there's the sinead o connor version if your miserable, the prince version if you want be fabulous, and now this swinging jazz version...
vocal has been tidied up, but she's old now innit?
i've never understood why someone would go to the effort of posting a song they don't like.

I thinks it's cos it's so drastically different to the original that it sounds wrong.
On its own merits it's quite good.
