I know some folks here feel strongly about this but I'm optimistic about it.

Zeppelin.

Im looking forward to hearing what she brings to this

I love Stanley Jordan's instrumental version.

I actually liked her version of One better than U2s. She cuts through all the romantic haziness of rock BS.

When I think of May J. Blige, I think of: http://prince.org/msg/8/330143

OMG No you didn't just say that.

Timmy84 said:

oh no why is this chick always trying to remake something? Dang. I've yet to hear an album from her where everything is original. There's always a sample in something.

I'm still mad about George Michael's version of Stevie Wonder's "As" with her.

In the manner of the terror-stricken police inspector at the end of The Wicker Man (3:52), realising the true horror that's about to unfold: "Oh, God!! Oh, Jesus Christ!!"

I should know my crowd but then again, its good that I don't

Sometimes I wish Mary J. Blige would take a Stairway to Heaven. Man she annoys the piss outta me.

Heresy! Heresy!

Mica Paris did my favourite soul version of it in the mid-90s. That song was always waiting to be definitively 'taken to church', though, I reckon, even if the moment has probably passed now.

But that's the problem: Bono, as usual sings it like a love song to himself.
