had to download the Mariah Carey one..since I am a HUGE fan of Robert Palmer's version...Cherelles..just sounded tooo 80's cheese to me...probalby cuz I was familiar 1st with Palmers...
So ... anyways... Mariah's is so stupid...she sampled the shit outta the Cherelle track..basically its her doing a karaoke version of it...its stupid...

if you like Robert Palmer's just stick to that one.

I still like Cherelles better...however I agree with you that Mariahs does sound like a karaoke version,at least when Robert did it he brought a whole new vibe to it...Mariah just was all on Cherelles shit when she recorded her version.
