This is a review of Rebecca Jordan's Dreams:

http://buzzworthy.mtv.com/tag/nelly-furtado

But the fact of the matter is, most cover songs are neither stunning successes nor spectacular failures. They just… are. Like emerging pop/funk artist Rebecca Jordan’s take on Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams.”

True, Rebecca’s pipes are not to be confused with Stevie Nicks‘ — nor her choreography with Jack Black’s/Joan Cusack’s from School of Rock — but her soft, smoky vocals made us smile, hum and wish we remembered enough of the words to sing along.

So have a listen, and let Rebecca’s low-key Fleetwood Mac impression lull you into a woozy, late-afternoon trance. Which is generally what happens when your singing voice reminds us of a mildly sedated Nelly Furtado.
