Landslide at #2!

[hayley]

The Sheryl Crow edit of "Landslide" will be available on a limited edition of Home that will be out for the holidays. As far as I know, it'll be the only time it's commercially available.

The difference is very subtle- like everyone said before, it de-countrifies it a bit.

I work at Sony Music- and so I do a lot of work for the Chicks and personally, I like the cover a lot. I've always been a fan of theirs, sicne seeing them live the summer before Fly was released, and I think they do the song justice. It fleshes it out musically, and I think it's an apt tribute. More than that, it's doing EXTREMELY well on the charts, it's still climbing on the Hot 100, and that is very, very good for Stevie and the Mac. It's bringing new fans to the song and the band.

Billy Corgan's version of Landslide is terrible- I hate it. Tori Amos's is not as bad. I do like her new live version of Songbird, though- she's playing it at all her shows. (Including her current shows this week in Chicago- also, if there are any Tori fans, Sony/Epic is doing an in-store signing with her at the Borders on N. Michigan at Water Tower this Friday)
