Cover vs. Original

Mr. Lonely / Lonely


The original is a classic played for many years in my house as a child and I have quite fond memories of the song, however, I have to admit that I prefer the updated version purely because I hate sampling in songs but this was quite a genius use of an old classic and I think it does the song some kind of justice that it rightly deserves.

I M 20 years old and Bobby Vinton's version is much much much better. I just don't understand why he would allow some rapper to use his wonderful song, which he wrote. Maybe Bobby just had a senile moment.

The akon's vercion is obius that will be better because there are more technology now in days, Bobby Vinton's Org. song is from the 60's , I vote for Bobby's Orginal song i like it a lot!!
