    I vote for the OG

    another vote for the original. the cover is pleasant, but ultimately unsatisfying.

    I agree with Fortuna. the cover is quite pleasant, and I may download for lazy sunday afternoons. but the original is really more true to the lyrical content. softening it doesn’t really accomplish anything subversive, new, or ironic. The cover effectually removes the lyrics and creates and slumber-like pleasant sing-song.

    I vote Original.
