Valerie vs. Valerie

Hey! I have both The original version by the Zutons and the one by Mark Ronson with Amy Winehouse. I like both, but I boogie to The Zutons version more. Which one do you prefer???

The Zutons




Mark Ronson w/Amy

Neither one of those for me lol.

I heard a great unplugged version on BBC radio earlier this year that she did during an interview. It's so soulful and CRUNCHY, reminds me of the kind of stuff from Stax, Buddhah, and Curtom Records my mother used to play when I was a baby in the early 70's. I snapped this version up and sent it to my 62 year old mom recently. Suffice it to say it's now her favorite "don't bother me because I'm cooking dinner now-while I have my screwdriver & menthol cigarette" song. Actually...mine too, minus the cigarette that is sexy absolut

lol

Anyway, I found a copy of it on youtube:

I like Amy's acoustic version the best.
tho' I battled blind
love is a fate resigned
memories mar my mind
love it is a fate resigned

Over futile odds
and laughed at by the Gods
and now the final frame
Love is a losing game

AMY/MARK.


P.S. Christopher, she is doing the thing in that clip around minute 1:16.


The official promo video does this song NO JUSTICE. With that wack Clap/Stomp rap at the beginning, I remember I booed him at the concert.


This song is dancey as all hell when done right.

I like the Monkees' "Valerie" best of all, but mainly because I had a crush on Valerie Belvin when the song was released.
