How could someone wicked walk around free

If you read some of the comments on YouTube regarding the version of My Little Red Book posted yesterday, there's some conflicting opinions as to who did the best version:
A Burt Bacharach song recorded by Manfred Mann and later murdered by Love.

I'm a Love fanatic, but I do think this version (and the film version) captures the essence of Bacharach much better.

this is the definitve [sic] version. reminds me of my childhood growing up in swinging london.

etc.
Say what?



That was horrible.

GrigoriSom (1 month ago):
Manfred Mann never did the definitive version of anything... including The Mighty Quinn.
Thank you. Goodnight.

I'm still stuck on LOVE, but I just remembered that THE CHILLS do a really beautiful cover of 'A Message to Pretty'
