I just hate the way that Gary Jules version got RE - done by a few dumbass American Idol schmucks, which totally cheapened it... and the fact that it got thrown into nearly every "dramatic" episode of this or that show... it just started to get a bit overdone to the point where I actually WANTED to hear the original...
