Loved this compilation so much. Of course, I took the two cassettes and boiled them down to one tape, so many of these I don't remember at all. But for a covers collection, this one had some of the most unique performances on it.
Still somehow thought that "You Belong To Me" was an original Anita Baker song, even though it was one of Carly's biggest hits. There are plenty of cuts on here that outshone the originals.
I'll leave it to you all to name which ones. In the meantime, it's time to kick - out - the jams - motherfhelloiloveyouwontyoutellmeyournamehelloiloveyouhelloiloveyou.
