A cover of a cover then...here's the original (and by far the best version imho) that Boney M covered

It's good too but a bit slow for me

I also think the goofiness of the adaptions adds to the appeal of this song

I think the opposite, in that the goofier versions (fun as they are) totally detract from the melancholic and spiritual longing that the lyrics describe.

Opinions eh! like assholes (everybody has one)

I really like the original Outkast version, but I've always really liked this Obadiah Parker cover of the song "Hey Ya" too.

I should be sleeping but huffing on iced bongs of tiptop quality hash and listening to great covers instead, and this is a truly great cover. Her voice on this, damn.
