| Which version of "Your Loving Arms" is the superior? The bonafied club classic, or the shiny, new re-rub? While both are nice, I just have to go with the older, the vocal performance just cooks my bacon... |

| I like Karen Overton's version although I have not yet heard the other version. |

| Karen Overton's version would probably be alright if she didn't sound quite so asleep and bored. |

Billie's is sung with passion, with power and sounds perfect, This new version is sacrilege, it's pathetic. She sounds like shes gargling mouthwash, sucking a lemon, sticking 3 fingers up her ass and doing her tax returns whilst singing, it's that bad. |

| billie ray martin wins easily. hands down. fatality. flawless victory. the vocals and flow of the original are so awesome. its easy to duplicate a hit out of a remake of this song, but it will never compare to the original. with the way that karen overton sings the song (like someone stated it sounds like she's about to pass out), hell, even my 5 year old niece could sing a remake and it'd appear on ASOT329857 |

Not even close.
Brothers in Rhythm (Dave Seaman) mix of Billie Ray Martin for the win. |

YES!! Although I think the only one i've heard is the original :p
Billie Ray Martin's BY FAR surpasses Karen Overton's. The first time I heard the new version I thought someone just did a remix, I didn't know some cow failed at a remake. |
