I don't care what anyone else says. Personally I enjoy her cover of this song. If artist like her don't cover the old standards, they will be lost forever, and that would be a shame. She stayed true to the original song, and I appreciate that. But then again, this woman could fart in a bag, and I bet she could make that sound great too!Thanks for posting this

... They couldn't tell me anything, but just hearing her voice made my day. Kate covering what i had always thought as a Billie Holiday -song... Interesting!This was before "Aerial" came out - so when i went to ask about this song it had been nearly 12 years she had released an album! No wonder I was desperate! ;)I love Kate's voice so much nobody else's compares to it. Just a personal preferance...

I can not understand comments like "unspeakably horrid" when we are talking about Kate Bush. While she is at her best doing her own songs, anything she sings makes me go bonkers. Just hearing that voice... For me there simply is nobody as good as Kate, musically speaking. Whatever she does is interesting - on one way or another. I first heard this song on a department store and insisted on meeting the ppl responsible for the music - just bc I wanted to know if Kate had published some new music.

This sounds like no other version I can think of....that alone makes it worthwhile.Why should Kate do it any other way?She's always had the otherworldly sopranowhich was cigarette damaged over time and yetthe emotional range more than makes up for it. She did this first and foremost as an homage to the composer and Larry Adler.

thats her normal voice its not some forced vibrato

idraote (December 31, 1969 at 6:59 pm)

she has chosen to use this terrible vibrato. a legitimate choice, of course, but it prevents me from appreciating her cover

I certainly wouldn't call it "unspeakably horrid". Nor would I generalise about Kate doing covers - she does an excellent version of Elton's "Rocket Man" (video from the "Wogan" show available on YouTube)with the trad Irish music that characterised a lot of her work around the "Dreaming" and "Hounds" periods. But yes her best songs are her own and nobody but nobody can do a decent cover of one of them.
