It's not that bad. It's just a different take on the song. Sort of pop, rock and a little country, instead of the pop R&B of the original. I think it's good for what it is. She just changed the genre of the song. If she had did a version of the song, based on the original arrangement and butcherd it, then I can see people saying that it's bad.


On stage at Hop Farm festival Prince said journalists ask him what he’s listening to right now and he tells them “good music”. I just don’t think this is good. Maybe someone could reinterpret this song and it would come out ok but this is not that.

I don't remember The Beatles having any scat vocals






True...but Maurice White and crew pulled it off in such a memorable and unique way to even where Lennon himself thought highly of the jazzy rendition.

I prefer their rendition by a landslide!

I didn't care for it, but I didn't dislike the cover version enough to want to write a snarky thinkpiece about it. Quite a few have popped up on my facebook newsfeed over the past few days. Meh, moving on...
