Pleasant enough once it opens up, but I can't hear any reason for this to exist. Nothing added or improved for me. Original version for me.

It reminds me though, it's only thanks to RP that I even realize how great Crowded House is, I only used to be familiar with the handful of singles that found success in the US. I was not familiar with the quantity and quality of their overall work, including this heartfelt melody. I second that! |

A rather nice re-thinking of the original.

Urgh... Not hating. This sounded too much like "Mumford and Sons" to me.
Very pretty, not bad harmonies banjo... so mellow!

Interesting and artistic interpretation based on their style. Can never understand why people can't "get" remade songs. Ever sang one at a campfire? Interpretation and improvisation. But I'm a musician so I get it. I think it's the musically illiterate that put songs in boxes.

I like the beginning better than the end. I'm not sure I like the key they use...
