Hmm, a harbinger of the Juno-inspired wave of new members about to hit?

that site says the carpenters version is a cover itself altho the 'original' version starts out very good, the choruses are fucking cheesy and annoying and overproduced with the very annoying background vocals and all that.. so my vote goes for the sy version. |

each instance of the chorus after the first in the carpenters song is diminished by richard carpenters patented "smother a song with syrup" production style. this sometimes served the tracks well, other times not. this gives SY's version the edge.

I'm going with Sonic Youth, but that's because I don't really like The Carpenters to begin with.

when i posted the carpenters were winning... and then i found out that you can vote as many times as you want in a row... so i voted like 68 times until SY was winning. sorry about cheating.
