hahahaha the explosion of black heart emojis in the chat when Amy Lee finally showed up to do a horrible duet with Dave Stewart

My takeaway is that the songs are so strong that I can usually at least tolerate and ofter enjoy most covers even if or especially if they are basically just trying to replicate the original versions. For me the canonical cover version I heard first and though nothing of the song until I finally heard the original was the Nazareth version of "Love Hurts."

I love "Love Hurts" so much that I even like the Nazareth cover, though the Joan Jett cover of the Nazareth cover is better.
That Dave Stewart/Amy Lee one isn't that hot tho.

A very sweet 1984 production. Like a cushion of synth clouds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dg0vgbFY60
