Although I can't stand Kenny Lattimore for the most part, he did a pretty good cover. I'll take the original though.

Love both of them equally. Dennis Brown definitely did the song justice.

My verdict: Rose Royce narrowly beats out the Cover Girls. Narrowly.
Here is my favorite version.

I really don't care who covers this song....it will always be Aretha's. I like's Mary and Kelly's cover though.

I kind of like Joseph Gordon-Levitt's take on this song, lol.Nystyle709 wrote:

For the record Chris, I agree about The Fugees version of "Killing Me Softly"

I actually like McCartney's version better.

Wait a minute, HOLD UP! HOLD UP. Someone actually wanted to remake that?!?! LOL! I love the song, but didn't know it was worthy of a remake. I'll still take the original, but he did good though! Me likes.

I like both versions of this, but Debarge's is classic!

Journey's is a CLASSIC. But as far as cover's go, I like Mariah's best.

Like Dionne's version better. She adds a brisk simplicity to it that Aretha didn't that compliments the lyrics more.

Journey all the way. Mariah is a pretty bland vocalist, imo. She's like a saltless potato chip. Steve Perry had some UMPH.
And Celine isn't even in the running. She's destroyed enough rock classics to last a lifetime.

Definitely take Luther and Cherelle's. I dunno, Luther just destroyed every cover he did. *sighs* RIP......

Love both, but I'm going with Beres. His voice is smoother.

My verdict: New Edition, by a country mile. I found Boyz II Men's cover to be so shlocky that it was almost painful to sit through.

Rihanna and Vybz fucked it up. Definitely take the original.

I'll go with Kelly's version. Her voice is a bit more 'fuller' on this song.
