I hate rap generally, but this I can listen too because the original tune is so powerful. And dare I say -- a heck of a lot better than Elvis' "Early Mornin' Rain". Kinda like with Kid Rock -- he sure is wierd, but actually a pretty good singer. I see nothing wrong with redoing classics...just listen to the Dixie Chicks version of "Landslide" by Stevie Nicks.
