Part of the greatness of Jim's songs is that they weren't written to be hits. Some of them became hits, and that's great, but I don't think Jim had that in mind. He just wanted to fulfill his vision. I'd rather hear a good version of the song than one that was made just to be marketed. I like Adam, but I just don't think he's right for the song. If Adam sings it, and it's a hit, and it promotes the musical, that's all well and good, but I'd still probably hate it. For me, I really like the Dream Engine version from Mohegan Sun, June 2005.
