Is She Really Going Out With Him?
Not a bad cover, actually, but not as good as the original... one of Joe Jackson's biggest hits.

It's very rare that a cover is better than the original and this is no exception. Very nice, Sugar Ray, but the original is still the best!

man, it's so cool that JJ gets honored by having others do his songs, but you can't compare the two, to say a cover is better is like saying a paint by numbers mona lisa is as good as the original? I just hope they never use it in a taco bell commercial:)

I honestly couldn't tell that it was a cover. I thought maybe Sugar Ray had really been around that long, or that the song was not as old as I had thought it was. So I gave my vote to Sugar Ray because it's a lot harder to do something that's already been done and get it right. Kudos to them for bringing back a great song that's even MORE true than it was back in 1979!!

I liked both but I think I'll give the edge to Sugar Ray.

I like them both, but Joe's is till the better of the two, but thanks to Sugar Ray for re-doing it and bringing the song back.

Sugar Ray tried nicely, but he doesn't have the raw energy that Jackson displayed in the 1970s

In my opinion, Goldfinger does a better cover.
