She has a great voice and, in the context of turning it into a pop song, does a very decent job. The risk was that this would be along the lines of Boyzone's Father and Son cover, which was <i>much</i> worse than Hitler or one of those mad fellas.

It's been played to death! But since I don't watch TV it doesn't really bother me :) Buckley’s version has been used on nearly every TV show at this stage. It’s been played to death!
