Not a cover per se, but Jon Carin NAILED the vocals and managed to outdo both Gilmour and Waters on this one. The faster tempo doesn't hurt, either. A rare feat (and treat).

Thanks for answering. I speak several languages as well but not at that level - I still translate and am not really affected in an emotional way.

Well done. sir. JGB has a lot of covers that surpass originals, in my opinion. "Shining Star" and "Don't Let Go" are a couple.
