One of my favorite songs, and a great arrangement. They way they both transition from melody to harmony and back is fantastic. Not often you hear a female singer singing a lower part than an male singer. The did an amazing job on this!

This song has been covered so many times by so, so many bands and singers. I can honestly say I have never heard it done better.
