This group called Young Divas is made of contestants from Australian Idol. "I Can't Wait" is on an their album that is about to be released. Fleetwood Mac Legacy has it for download on their Song of the Week page. link

Here is a review I found:
"I Can't Wait - 10/10

The Young Divas pillaging Stevie Nicks' back catalogue should be wrong in so many ways but "I Can't Wait" is a blistering work of pop brilliance. Stevie's original is one of my favourite songs. The inspired mix of guitars and synths was so far ahead of its time that a modern remake feels almost appropriate. I'm not sure what Stevie would make of this version but I love it. "I Can't Wait" works remarkably well as a dancefloor anthem and the surprisingly sleek production distinguishes the track from the rest of the album. Exquisite!"

All I can say is WOW - I think this is the best cover to date

a little pop-ish - but it still works for me

Oh and by the way - that Troy version of ICW - I forgot all about that one!!!

I think that's her best live performance of it - ever.

Hm, not bad.

I agree, not too bad, but only because they didn't change a whole lot about it. I remember hearing a Rooms On Fire dance-cover by some girl like 1 or 2 years ago that was just horrible!

Hey, not bad! I love the fact that whoever arranged it chose to mix in two "Yes I know you's" before the first chorus.
That's actually the way I remember this song best, because I am pretty sure that in '85 when ICW was getting airplay here in NY the mix they used also included the "Yes I know you" parts before the chorus.

somehow, I knew you'd say that.

btw, I actually like this cover. it's so awesome that Stevie's music continues to pop up where you'd least expect it.
