Not sure if it's better than the original. it's different, but in a great way.<BR/><BR/>Con Funk Shun: One of my favorite songs to date. I love that Dru Hill album because of the remake of this song. This is definitely an all time favorite, and I can't believed no one hasn't played before today.<BR/><BR/>Last song. All I can say is hmmmm. I don't get the same haunting feeling that you get.

Sometimes the remakes surpass the originals - especially when remade by serious talent.<BR/><BR/>This was a fun theme, I was going for easy by posting a Beatles remake but then I discovered <A HREF="http://popartdiva.blogspot.com/2009/01/old-school-friday-beatles-helter.html" REL="nofollow">how many remakes of Helter Skelter were made</A> - frankly, I was a bit surprised.
