Against All Odds
In the early 80s Phil Collins came up with one of the most brilliant ballads ever written, the classic "Against all odds (Take a look at me now)". Very few tried to cover the song later, but so did Mariah Carey in 1999 as part of her "Rainbow"-Album. Both versions don't differ that much, but it's Mariah's Voice that gives the cover version a little more thrill and passion. Both versions were massive radio hit singles.

Comments about Against All Odds:
WTF?
The Postal service cover is almost as terrible as Mariah's version.
Phil Collins is one of the UK's most prolific singer/song writer.

Forget Mariah Carey. What about the Postal Service version? It seems to me that was every bit as good as the Phil Collins version.
(Interesting bit of trivia: How many of you knew this song is originally from the motion picture soundtrack of a movie with the same name?)
