Stevie vs. Laura Branigan

[GODDESS6]

i love me some laura, but i have to go w/ stevie's version~

[BombaySapphire3]

I have not heard LB's version so I really can't vote .It 's a song that could have been written by a modestly talented high schooler ..one of the many cringe worthy Klonopin moments La Nicks had so often back then .That being said I do still think TOSOTM is 3/4 of a great album.

I don't like Laura Branigan's version...

I like Stevie's version somewhat, but its not a favourite...

The version I like best is Jude Johnstone's - she wrote it and sang it how it was meant to be sung...

[BlackWidow]

In all fairness..Stevie's voice is pretty shot on Cry Wolf!

I like Laura's version better.

Ditto! I love Stevie, really I do...but that song suited Laura better IMHO!

And RIP to my dear Laura

I agree. It's pretty awful. I voted for Stevie anyway.

I don't think the song is THAT bad--but Stevie's version blows away Laura's in my opinion.....

[TheMacAttack]

While I concur that it is not a Stevie masterpiece, I go with Stevie over Laura B on this one. And what is up with that video and the guy doing somersaults all over the place?

This was cool hearing the other version, but without a doubt I take Stevie's version. I actually adore the song, one of my faves on OSOTM. I love playing it on the piano......

Much Love,
Ethan

Laura Branigan... rest in peace. I never knew how she died (cancer?)

I didn't vote cause didn't hear the SN version. But it's funny, I'm immediately thought in I FOUND SOMEONE. What version I like more? LB or Cher's? Cher, of course..

Does anyone know if this is on youtube or veoh anymore because my dad REALLY wants to see this as he was a laura fan, and we can't find it anywhere.

I blame this equally on Rupert Hine and Stevie Nicks, since, according to Stevie, he picked the songs and she let him.

One of my least favorite songs... on my LEAST favorite album of Stevie's.
I will chime in and pick the Stevie version however.

I had them all posted on YouTube, but alas I am now blocked...as are my videos. Some were even removed post haste by those bastards...

I will post now on Veoh.com thanks to some very good advice I received here

YouTube became the pop culture phenomenon, but Veoh is waaaaaaay better.
