I just noticed something: it's fitting that the single this is from is called 'steaming'... cause it's a big ol' steaming pile of...

I don't know what y'all are complaining about. That was a great cover!

Sheesh. Some people just get on the ol' bandwagon and a good track gets slammed. Unfair.

FYI, I rated it a 10 before reading a single comment.

Really, I don't hate this, but it's very strange. It's weird to hear a song so closely associated with Peter Gabriel sung by another artist I like. With yodeling.

Mah goodness this doesn't do either Sarah or Solsbury Hill ANY justice. Maybe it's a good idea to lay it to rest.

I'm not convinced this is Sarah.... who uploaded this, and are his/her resources reliable? Hmmmm....

This makes me sad...because it was a bad cover of one of my favorite tunes...because it was performed by an artist I like...because it's still being played on RP despite the worst rating I've ever seen for a song here.

This must be the lowest average rated song at RP with this many votes, and it still isn't low enough! :puke:

What I find hilarious is that someone still rated it a 10. They are not invited to any parties at my house!

Well at least we know that Sarah's come a long way since this song was recorded! The band and arrangement also leave something to be desired!

She even tries to mimic Gabriel's off-key all the time. Horrible.

This is a joke, right?

I guess this song stands as an anthem of RP: sticking its middle finger up to the world and saying that nonconforming music will be played, even if it is crap! No bowing to the pressures of the listeners!

Ok. You proved your point. You win. Just don't play this anymore! Please!

Okay. This one is almost getting funny. This may still be on the playlist to provoke us, at this point. Rather like poking an animal with a stick.

I think we have proof here that Bill doesn't let ratings effect his programming. I suppose that is a good thing, but it also means we are subjected to this every once in a while...

The biggest howl is when the bass mimics her rendering of "boom boom boom." Otherwise, this doesn't make me want to go all Howard Beel or anything, but I have to agree, it's pretty bad.

I don't get the negative comments. This was early in her career, but it's decent.

Her cover of Gloomy Sunday is my favorite version (second: Heather Nova).

Horrible. Sounds like something from a 1970s "easy listening" FM station.

Such a disappointing cover, from one of my favourite artists - shame.
