That record that seems to be being played everywhere at the moment, by U2 & M J Blije, not bad either. That Mary has a great voice! Anyway, googled away and can't find the original artist that did it. IMHO the original was by far, better. MJ would be better off without U2 yodelling in the background. So come on then, who did the original? TIA. -- Greybeard FLHRCI -01 UK ( 95 cu-in Stg 2. Big Boy!)

Err... U2 wasn't it? The Lighthouse Family also covered it - kinda. Personally I prefer the MJB/U2 version - so much so that I even bought the CD single. First time I've ever bought one. -- Krusty. http://www.muddystuff.co.uk http://www.muddystuff.us Off-road classifieds '02 MV Senna '03 Tiger (FOYRNB) '96 Tiger '79 Fantic 250
She's just a fucking moaner. Can't seem to hold a single note longer than a semitone. -- _______ ..'_/_|_\_'. Ace (brucedotrogers a.t rochedotcom) \`\ | /`/ GSX-R1000K3 `\\ | //' BOTAFOT#3, SbS#2, UKRMMA#13, DFV#8, SKA#2 `\|/` `

As many have said the original "One" is by U2. I love the original but I also really enjoy this new Mary J. Blige & U2 collaboration. It gives the song a new feel and I even bought it on CD Single - that doesn't happen very often. First CD Single I've bought in three years.
'scuse my ignorance, but is U2 _the_ original? I thought the other one, which I now believe is the LHF to be the original? /confused!? -- Greybeard FLHRCI -01 UK ( 95 cu-in Stg 2. Big Boy!)

Take it from me that U2 wrote, sung and published the original. It won the Nation's Favourite Lyric in a VH1 poll recently. The MJB version is a cover / duet with U2 humming away in the background. http://www.mtv.co.uk/mtvuk/news/art...5XHW1VFQFIAIISFFGAVABBEIV0?articleId=65133529
Yes, U2 did the original about 15 years ago on the Achtung Baby album. http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=33:lfu3682271t0
Right. Must have missed that then as I really hated that album! -- Greybeard FLHRCI -01 UK ( 95 cu-in Stg 2. Big Boy!) Trumpet Trophy 1200 -96, (The Barge) for rainy days ukrm@foxtails[dot]co[dot]uk *** Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com ***
