The Fly
So believe it or not I heard this version on the radio for the first time. I have been avoiding listening to it because I can't stand when singers do all those gospel style 'runs' and I knew she'd do them. She did. I thought this version was terrible and gratuitous. The production was muddy and the vocals were so in your face it hurt my ears. I never got much out of this song to begin with but this just killed any chance it did have with me. I didn't like anything about it.
Before y'all start hatin' I do have a reason for this thread. My question is, did they re-record this in totality or is it studio musicians + Edge, Bono, and Blige, or what? It sounded like Edge's guitar work and not a copycat but the drums were bogus and the bass might have been programmed. Couldn't tell. It was wishy washy.
Ok, let me have it...
