This might run out of steam quickly but i'll start:

I'm quite fond of the Randy Crawford song, but never really got a taste for the early Roxy Music stuff.

Here's an obvious one.

The Power of Love - Frankie Goes to Hollywood
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyoTvgPn0rU

The Power of Love - Jennifer Rush
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_zHQ6kFuQ0 [censored for taste]

The Power of Love - Huey Lewis and the News
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIiVp3poe2c

Frankie say... No contest

It's obviously the Huey Lewis one. The Frankie one got John Lewis'd and is now rubbish, thrown into the skip along with Keane, Elton John and Elbow.

Nah Huey Lewis every time for me

Ballad of Ballard Berkley

Definitely Huey and his News for me too, that's a cracking song.

This one is quite tricky, I reckon...

Baby, I Love You by The Ronettes.

Baby, I Love You by Aretha Franklin.

Jennifer Rush is easily my favourite of these.

But the correct answer is obviously Captain Sensible - The Power of Love

Pointer Sisters - Automatic
Prince - Automatic

A rare loss for Prince on this one. And very confusing, as the Pointer Sisters song sounds like something written by Prince.

Blimey, the MBV is great, but Air takes this one - Beth Hirsch is a wonderful vocalist.
