Faith Hill is a very tallented person but does not demonstrate that she has a clue as what she is singing. I used to say shoot her and put her out of her misery or my misery. Believe it or not Faith Hill put that song on the country charts.
Ok I hope I am getting a little interest in this tread because I'd love to read others takes on these songs. If not it will fall into digital oblivion.
Does anyone care to post a song? Please step up.
Thank you

Melissa smokes the tune on guitar. She's just too 'dykey' sounding on vocals. On the other hand, Janis' whiskey burnt vocals rip down to the heart of the matter. Faith should stick to lullabyes.
So, Let's critique the Buddy Holly original, "Not Fade Away", covered by The Grateful Dead, Rush, and The Rolling Stones.
