I was playing The Beatles – Hey Jude on Winamp (which then shows on MSN 7.0 or later) when this conversation ensued:

Hey Jude!!
I like Sun Yan Zhi’s version
I heard hers as well, but I prefer the Beatles version… hers is a bit too angelic and pure voiced
Nice maaa
She doesn’t have the part where they go Yeah yeah yaaah yeaahaa WHHOOOOOO! And those intricate harmonies!
ergh
I dunno how to explain.. but I prefer Yan Zhi’s version
Haha okay
I like that particular bit (3:00 onwards) where they go all spazzy and rock and roll-ish
It’s very expressive
ergh
You don’t like that part?
Nope
Painful to the ears
Makes me cringe
*picks you up and puts you on the side of the line of people who don’t like that part*
Aiyo!
I LOVE IT
The fact that the Beatles have a lot of these cuckoo moments is what makes me love them
And the jude-a-jude-a-waaah-aaa-AOOOWWW!
Why do you think Michael Jackson bought the rights to them Beatles songs maaan
coz he got the AOWWW from them, he might be scared that they would sue him
I mean, I like the beginning and the chords and all, but the second half really defines the song for me
At the same time, I think Nelly feat. Kelly Rowland – Dilemma is a &@!#*&@!# annoying song
Especially the high-pitched AUUUW part at the end of each sentence
Kalau takde benda itu, sure orait punya

You can figure that those in italics are what I said.

But seriously man, the fact that they go cuckoo and just lose it makes the Beatles’ version better. Better. Better better better better OH!!!

Which is why I don’t like Mariah Carey. She’s a tonally perfect pitched multi-octaved super singer singing robot. She’s got no SOUL!
