I like Maxwell's version, but Kate's original is a masterpiece. She is a brilliant artist, one of the best of the last 30 years, no question.

Something about a man being able to sing those words just does it for me. Both artists sing the song beautifully, but for a man to say it has a little bit more of a kick to it and it's coming from Maxwell...nuff said. His Unplugged version is 10 times better than that album version. Here it is:



I love how Maxwell is always able to make a song sound different when he's performing it live. nod
