Ori vs Covered

Lately, a cover version of Careless Whispers by the rock band Seether has taken over the airwaves here in Brunei. Its popularity seems to have grown and almost every dj in almost every radio station plays this song in his/her show.

I am not a big fan of covered songs. I always prefer the songs as sung by the original singers. Careless Whispers by George Michael (now by Seether), Mamma Mia by Abba (once covered by BNB), Dancing Queen by Abba (once covered by Kylie Minogue), How Deep is Your Love by Bee Gees (once covered by Take That) and the list goes on. Even though the singers of the covered version put some twists in the arrangement, melody or the way they sing the songs, the original versions are always the best.

So here's the wonderful original version of Careless Whispers by George Michael....
