jj, I haven't been able to see your last few YouTube videos, including one at the "What Are You Listening" thread. :)

Favorite cover but I love the original, too

Tried that. It didn't seem to fix it.

Anybody know what else the problem could be?

Whats most impressive about the cover song was a great voice with a ukulele could match the original two classics in quality. Im sure it also will endure the test of time.

I would say there's a good case for KT Tunstall's version of 2000 Miles being better than the Pretenders' original.
