"I got you babe." I happen to really like the new version. It has a distinct reggae beat and it certainly benefits from not having Sonny's whiny voice singing the male lead. Some friends of mine have also heard the new version and really find it obnoxious. Anyone else find that this cover version breathes some new life into an old, pop tune?
