Hands down - RobertaNumbrOneAunt says,
roberta, no question. but i'm curious as to who gets your vote, bevvie?Bevvie says,
Roberta but do love The Fugees version too.ba_miracle says,
I had a Lauryn hill version slowed, without the rap, and deeper boom (instead of stingy, tingy high hat drumbeat). It was quite sensual and moving.Dragonflower says,
One time, one time. Fugees.MotorCityMich says,
Roberta, but I like the Fugees' version too actually.Dean6805 says,
Roberta always, but I must admit that I really like Laryn Hill's vocals on the Fugees' version. It's funky and catchy.JAD says,
Roberta for sure.marymc says,
Roberta. When it's done correctly the first time, it don't need redoing. Can you imagine American Pie or Born to Run? No.Bevvie says,
Roberta is leading right now!Dragonflower says,
I only just learned the correct words in the lyrics. I always thought it said, "strumming my thing with his fingers." When I was a teenager I thought they were nasty lyrics. I didn't know what "thing" meant, but since everyone giggled, I thought it must be nasty. I even thought that with the Fugees version. I wouldn't let my daughter buy their CD because of it. Makes me laugh to think of it.
