So many have covered this song, some incredibly well, but... None have yet improved on the original. Jennifer Rush, The Power of Love.
Yeah, I actually heard Air Supply's cover first for some reason and already liked the song but she packs quite a voice. Wish she hadn't been a one hit wonder (though I'm sure she has more out there if I look).
I have, for some time now, been rather ashamed of how many Canadians I am discovering through my interactions with European metal fans. I realize it is not really my fault. Our system is almost biased against metal but, dang, surely there must be markets for them somewhere here. After all, the Junos do have a Metal/Hard Music category (which went to death metal band Cryptopsy this year). Anyhow, one of those Canadians who really needs to be better known at home is Devin Townsend. Singer-guitarist-songwriter-producer and damn good at all of them. Rather like the UK's Steven Wilson, though his style of music is heavier than Wilson's.
From a 2012 concert DVD, the Devin Townsend Project in action. Quite a live showman, too, I will add.
The blonde female singer, by the way, is Dutch vocalist Anneke van Giersbergen who has probably been mentioned in these parts before. Her work with Devin is just one part of a long, multifaceted career.
