Well, I liked the original song and I think John's version was good too. A different take and nothing wrong with that. I think there has been more than one remake of a hit that changed things up successfully. Good vocal too John, very talented singer.
Thanks W.T.
As regards Impuls I consider it case closed. I should not have started it to begin with, my mistake.
Steve,
I beg to differ here as to the original version of Roller Coaster but as you will no doubt agree with me it is all a matter of taste. Incidentally the link to the original by Danny Vera was a studio live session.There is also the official recording :

here are a few links which might be interesting to some of you.

P.S. apologies for diverting from my own subject but then I guess he deserves it......
