Great Take On A Classic Tune..........

[The Builder]

I always thought Donna Summer's was the best version of Jon & Vangelis' "State of Independence".

Then I heard Chrissie Hynde's .............

Now, I've come across this, recorded a few years ago ....... what a band, especially when the bass kicks in at 1:36 .............

:o)

It's quit good, but I still think Chrissie kicks it's ars....

I've long been a fan of Andrea Corr's voice, a great version of a great song.
Has she embarked on a solo career or was this a one-off?

Off to You tube to check out Chrissie's version.

Rocky's right about Chrissie's version I guess. I just found that Andrea's was maybe a little less contrived, but maybe that's only because it's live.

The Corrs have taken a sabbatical while they all bring up their families, I think. The Corrs are just on the shelf for a while.

Chrissie's version not as good imo.
But this shows she still has a that amazing voice:-

Thanks for putting that up, MC.

Have to go out now, but I'll give that a good listen later :o)
