Covers......which is better??.......

The original with Dionne Warwick that was featured in the restaurant scene in the movie "My Best Friend's Wedding".......

or the cover by Aretha Franklin who reveals her church roots and the reason she is called The Queen of Soul......

I'm partial to Aretha

That voice, who cares if she didn't have the movie star looks usually promoted by the industry.

Re: I'm partial to Aretha

I love them both......but, Aretha's version of this is better.......Imagine spending a quiet evening at home and the phone rings.......and it's Stevie Wonder telling you that he's written a song just for you and he wants to meet to record it and you get this.......

It's because he was blind and they told him she looked like Taylor Swift. ;)

Re: Yours......or someone else's??.......

The Man Code sez you don't interfere with an existing marriage or relationship. Therefore, I would NEVER do that, as it immoral, unethical, shows a total lack of character and integrity, and I can't run as fast as I used to. 

>Never forget.....men are romantic.......women are pragmatic......

>hypergamy and all that.

No worries there. I'm broke. Why do you think I"m trying to woo a girl from the rain forest in a developing country? ;)

I know "Pea" and plan to be on the Visayas islands in September to help with the construction of the new house, and then move into their old one with my new wife. And if that doesn't happen, well...that  carabao looks kinda cute.

Re: Covers......which is better??.......

I avoid Jada Pinkett entanglements

because I'm not smart enough to lie and don't want to end up institutionalized again.
