All the cool kids are going ape shit over Caroline Polacheck these days, and while I got the memo, I don't really understand the hype. She's a good singer and I appreciate that she avoids the diva screams and squeals, but I'm trying to figure out what is new or fresh here. Case in point, her cover of this corny song by The Corrs isn't a whole lot different than the original. This version shucks the 80s keyboard ornamentation, but Ms. Polacheck's vocals have that annoying studio treated quaver so while the original is a little cheesier, this cover is actually more annoying. A pox on both versions.
