A must have for any true Natalie Fan, includes her cover of "Sympathy For the Devil". I believe this is the only cd to find that song.

"Jealousy," the beautiful and haunting song from Natalie Merchant is remixed here in a form that I love; it is the most beautiful of all versions of the song that I have heard and fully justifies the price of the CD single alone. The other track, a rarity indeed, is "Sympathy for the Devil (Live)," in a version that is superior in every way to the Stones' original.

This is one of the best CD singles I have ever heard: it is interesting, rare, unique, and doesn't merely ape album offerings. I highly recommend this CD.

For those of you who do not know who Natalie Merchant, shame shame shame on you (former lead singer of the band 10,000 Maniacs). Believe me- She'll put Michelle, Vanessa, M2M and yes even Jewel to shame. With killer vocals and great songwriting/guitar playing ability she really is the queen of Folk rock. The radio remix of "Jealousy" is great because unlike the album version it incorporates organs along with guitars, to have more stuff going on. Recently miss Merchant released another great album called "Motherland" which unfortunatly flopped. Just goes to show that kids these days will eat up the manufactured stuff (Read: NSYNC and Britney) and not know where the real talent is. Congrat's Natalie for being yourself and not giving into the teen crowd. Final grade: A+

I love Natalie's cover of Sympathy For the Devil! Looked hard for it, excited to find it!

This is definitely one of Natalie Merchant's best CD singles! The remix of "Jealousy" is awesome and so is the live version of "Sympathy for the Devil".

Side note: The previous reviewer stated that Natalie is a great guitar player but she plays the piano, not guitar.

Natalie definitely knows how to sing, and this cd makes that apparent to anyone. It's great and you will be so happy when you listen to it.
