A new feature on this site is a simple one. Posting two versions of songs I love. One of the joys of Youtube is finding covers of songs and sometimes it's surprising who covered what. I hate those singer songwriters indie versions of songs so you will hear v few of them here. Instead there will be versions from TV shows or B sides to hit singles or other album tracks by a variety of stars.
First song is Just The Way You Are. If ever there is a perfect love ballad it has to be that one. Barry White would be an obvious choice but instead here is the very gorgeous Olivia Newton John and her version which she sang on her TV show back in 1978.
And of course the second version has to be Billy Joel.
