Cyndi Lauper
The first version I heard from one of my favorite singers. She's sexy in the video. Really couldn't ask for more. Céline's is a close second, and I really enjoyed Pinmonkey's and The Protomen's versions, too.

Cyndi Lauper
I didn't know so many people have recorded/covered this song. I think I liked Cyndi's version best. The Pinmonkey and Carly Smithson version were interesting as well.

Céline Dion
Celine Dion and Cyndi Pauper sang it best but Dion has a beautiful range and the music flows with her voice better making hers the best. Roy Orbison sang it very good as a male version. The other male versions are not good at all. They almost ruin the song. Smithson did not do well either because it did not have a very good flow. I have not heard Waite or Dylans versions.
