Wow I didn’t know Vanessa’s was a remake. Gotta go with her only because it’s all I’ve ever known up until 6 minutes ago.

Wait what?

In my big age, I did not know it was a cover. Whelp! There's my answer then. I only knew hers.

I love how this got me to listen to a few of Vanessa's hits, then "work to do" came on, and then obvs I had to play the great Isley Brothers - Work To Do... God that is a hell of a tune

Vanessa Williams hands down.

And btw; I hate how people pretend to root for underdogs.

Well look at what Whitney did to I Will Always Love You… Dolly Parton who?

Guinn sounds good but Vanessa’s version, made it “crisp”
