My fav part of this cover is how they change the lyrics from “and you love me until my heart stops, love you til your dead” to “and I love you til my heart stops, love you til I’m dead” it’s a change that makes the world difference in terms of me liking this version over the original. More romantic.
I just got the 40th anniversary of Stop Making Sense 4K Blu-ray collection but I cannot get myself to watch it for the first time. With this Sean Hayes' cover, I've got plenty of time ♥️ such a powerful cover, uplifting sensation.
