Everytime I hear this song, it amazes me that Bruce originally wrote it for The Ramones to perform.

This version sounds way better than the original.

That actually isn't bad. She does have a bit of Chan Marshall in her, doesn't she? Except without Chan's broodiness.
I always love how they play the original at weddings and everyone gets excited and dances without realizing how dour and sad the song really is. Give it a 4/4 beat and everyong just accepts it as a happy-go-lucky tune.

So I guess that was Minnie doing her own singing in "Beautiful." Check out that film...at least the scene where she does her "talent" at the final pageant. The singing is very good; the choreography is atrocious. I laughed the whole time.

I was a little apprehensive about Minnie Driver working with Pete Yawn...er Pete Yorn on her album, but it seems she done good under the influence of his musicianship...and his wanger of course.
Lovely!

This is toilet. She has managed to turn a wonderfully euphoric song into a melancholic dirge. Bruce has himself recorded slower versions of Hungry Heart, but he has still managed to keep the song a happy one. Sorry Minnie, but stick to failed relationships and a one movie career.

hmmm. me likey.

Minnie, a girl of many talents it seems. Nothing wrong with taking an energetic song and giving it a tinge of melancholy. Remember what Tori Amos did with Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit". She truly gave it a haunting edge. Like party streamers and floating balloons, when the night is late and the party has come to an end. No less beautiful with it's dolorous strain.

She's no Jill Hennessy.

Read the lyrics again and then tell me its a happy song.

For all the one's saying how wonderful Minnie Driver is...
Remember Goldeneye.

I recognize that the Boss is talented and all, but I don't care for his music. Minnie did a great job singing on his track. She has a really relaxing but pure voice.

O, now, for ever Farewell the tranquil mind! farewell content! Farewell the plumed troop and the big wars That make ambition virtue! O, farewell! Farewell the neighing steed and the shrill trump, The spirit-stirring drum, the ear-piercing fife, The royal banner, and all quality, Pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war! And, O you mortal engines, whose rude throats The immortal Jove's dread clamours counterfeit, Farewell! Othello's occupation's gone! vinnie A horse! a horse! my kingdom for a horse!
