Why not just cover the song? This is pretty much Karaoke. Oh well, at least she looks good in the video and Martin Gore makes a little money from Disney.

The best part is reading the comments from teenagers which are along the lines of "Waitaminit? Hilary didn't write this one? Who did the original version?".

Then again "Personal Jesus" came out in 1989 and if you're 18 years old you weren't born yet.

Not really a cover, just singing over a music riff sample as so many have done with other songs (i.e. "S.O.S./Tainted Love"- Rihanna), etc.

As far as the video goes, it's about time Hillary stopped that "whiter than snow" act got in touch with her inner slut. Warms the cockles of my heart... or is it the heart of my cockles?

At least she didn't cover one of their really good songs (IMHO), maybe "Route 66" is available to be butchered as well [;)]

Is there anyone other than me who actually likes when current music samples older songs and breathes fresh life into them? Simply Red sampled Hall & Oates' I Can't Go For That a few years back to great effect, singing a new melody over the original music. Rihanna's Don't Stop the Music with the Michael Jackson sample is infectious (as is SOS). I've just accepted that producers, writers, performers are all going to inject music of their youth into their music now and then--these are the artists who inspired them. It wasn't uncommon in the 80s for many artists to cover songs they grew up with in the 60s, and we ended up with a whole lot of fantastic cover versions. I'm not into that whole concept of music being exclusive, sacred and untouchable. I prefer that great songs from the past be brought back to the limelight. I can't stand it when the songbooks of the Bee Gees, Olivia Newton-John, Donna Summer, the BEATLES, etc., are used on American Idol and NONE of the contestants knows ANY of their songs. If younger generations aren't exposed to these songs somehow, this great music is all going to die with us.

To answer your question simply, no. There is no one other than you for feels this way.

Just kidding. Most of the time, it doesn't kill me when a song is re-made, as long as it is re-made well. I'd rather younger generations aren't exposed to these songs at all than be exposed to cheap, poor versions of them.

We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

The scary thing is that this is off her new greatest hits collection and evidently this is Hillary Duff's SECOND greatest hits CD!!! What the hell could have been on the first? How long has she been at this? 3 years?

I have to think that there is a silent majority of male NWO'ers out there who are watching this video over and over again with with the sound turned down. Come on...you know that we know [;)]

I cant stand the way Hilary sang "Reach out touch me, reach out touch ME!" What exactly is she implying?

With her "whiter than snow" persona, her songs definitely arent. I can see that little slut inside of her just dying to get out. LOL

Reach out touch FAITH!
