I Want Candy cover by a couple of my friends

I just listened to the original on YouTube and it's dire imo, but my friend (Emily the singer) just sent this to me.

I hadn't heard this before, but Emily had a cold when she sang this (apparently) and she's 16. And I think it's bloody fantastic.

What do you guys think of it?

Exactly what I think.

Umm, I'm going to say Mel C as I *think* that's the version I listened to last night on YouTube.

But no doubt it's going to be someone else.

Oh right, never knew that.

And Emily has done a good job. You can tell she has a slight cold because it does waver a bit but nontheless a good effort.

Ah, really nice of you to say.

She'll be chuffed, I'll let her know. Thanks.
