This child was touch by the angel of no talent.

As others have said, it's strange to hear that fuzzy-yodel effect used on such a restrained performance but it complimented the song, wasn't too intrusive (or maybe hehey is right! Perhaps that's how she sings. Maybe she warms up with ringtones?)
I liked that a lot.

I wouldn't go as far as saying I prefer Solange's version over Sia's, but it is a great cover nonetheless. Who knew Solange could invoke that rainy day chill mood sound without coming across all gimmicky & commercial? I sure as hell didn't. This genre maybe her niche for the next album. I'd love to hear her do some original work.

i feel it was enough to mention the fact that "Destiny" is a Zero 7 track. this was not a Zero 7 or Sia post, it's about Solange. what was she supposed to do--put a Zero 7 biography right in the middle of this post? links are provided for a reason: so people can be reminded or discover new things on their own.

additionally, stating a personal preference could never be a travesty. the real travesty is when people are hated on for doing so.

I love this site, cause honestly didnt knw of this song or zero7 until, i agree with the use of digital auto tune, but I went and listened to the original. Although I thought it was good. there's a quality i think solange added that I care for a little more! Much Respect!

SB Reader & hey hey touch on this briefly, and by my drifting from the topic I don't mean this as any short-changing of Solange, but I see you pushing a her and she has made leaps and bounds but this is a Soul site and to mention Zero 7 without mentioning the person that put them on the map Sia Furler, Australian-born SOUL singer is a bit wack. She was giving people chills as early as 97, grinding doing it big. I would hope you could post this youtube version of distractions and let people be the judge:

For you to even consider this better than the original is a travesty!!! stick to soul music, Sia Fuller is the real deal.

I love Solange; however, I didn't like the digitized sound that others have mentioned. Without that, I probably would have loved it. Nikesha- I'm with you. I totally feel her over B cuz she doesn't try to do all commercial stuff like her big sis.

Nice cover...I really enjoyed :-)

I am shocked that I really like this song! Love the CD, now I guess i can call myself a Solange fan!! Don't tell anybody just yet.

Wow. Funny I was just listening to Adele's Hometown Glory, or TRIED to, but it reminds me too much of a song by Sia, a lead singer for Zero7-- and wondered if any of the youngins remember that band. Guess so.

That said.... is that autotune? Or are girls who can legitimately sing trying to sound digitized? Heaven forbid.

I loved it. i'm soo loving her more than her sister right now it's not even funny.

why can't she just sing why is there so much machinery involved?
Is there something wrong with my computer?
That sounds like she has that terrible effect on.
Wasn't impressed with the vocal and I am not sure what killin it the band was doin besides killin my time away. How unfortunate

LOVE this girl.
