Now here's a song worth 10, such a beautiful voice as well.

Was vaguely interesting the first few times of hearing.  Boring and dreary when heard every day.

really do not understand the hype. the music is okay, but the singer´s voice is simply the most unbearable thing i have heard for a really long time!
it´s not even "interesting" in a strange way, so one could say "i like it" or "i don´t like it although it´s.... uhm... interesting" ...
no, it´s simply horrible :-(

Really don't like this song, and boy does it get a lot of airplay here.  Not sure why, the vocals drive me crazy.  Sounds just like a whiny woman singing, and I couldn't imagine how this could be a man.   So I had to youtube the song just to see for myself what it looked like being sung by a man.

Ha ha! No. I hear it too. Is this a man or woman singing? I can't figure it out from the voice, album cover or singer's name. It's like an  "It's Pat" sketch!

Robin Gibb - RIP.  Stayin' Alive in our hearts.  And apparently in this song as well.

Billy wearing an exceptionally tight pair of undies maybe.  I'm hearing a lot more Janis Joplin here. 

 
Janis Joplin?!  What are you smoking??  Oh, you're being sarcastic, right?  Listen to the vocals on "Disarm" mixed in with this song.  Identical   (btw - my comparison is in no way meant as a compliment.  I cannot stand Billy's voice, grates on me like fingernails on a chalkboard).
