Straight No Chaser - I Want You Back
Artist: Straight No Chaser
Producer: Straight No Chaser
Album: Under The Influence
Label: Atlantic Records
If NASA asked me to select a single song to beam into space, as representative of humanity’s greatest achievements in the arena of pop music, my hands-down selection would be the Jackson 5’s I Want You Back. It’s just that damn good. While there’s no improving on perfection, Booth newcomers Straight No Chaser put a fresh and impressive twist on the 1969 classic on single numero uno off their next studio album. A 10-piece a cappella group formed while the members were attending Indiana University, the Atlantic Records signees faithfully recreate the record’s instrumental backdrop as singer/songwriter Sara Bareilles delivers an inspired rendition of the young MJ‘s lead vocals. Think Straight, No Chaser did justice to the Jacksons’ beloved debut single? If so, you’ll be able to hear more from this talented ensemble on their Under the Influence LP, set to hit record stores and online retailers May 7.

Sara is awesome. Im a big fan of hers. I didn't really like the a cappella, it felt to bubble-gummy, but Sara's vocals were strong.

It is hard to replicate a CLASSIC, but this is quite a fresh spin on the Jackson 5 original.

I feel the soul, it's like a funk pop fusion, and the old school sampling never gets old.

This is a difficult song for anyone to do since no one will (more than likely) ever be able to rip it as good as a young mike...
