That song had a revival recently. I don’t remember hearing it when it came out, but it has been on my coworkers radio every day for the last couple of months. Maybe it has been on a TV show or something. Great song.

In the past two decades there’s been a bunch covers that I know of (or just learned of):
and then a bunch of electronic music mixes.
I love that song since the 80s; and for a long time - until the early 2000s I knew no covers - so I am very happy that there’s a lot of tributes to Black with lots of different styles :)

I just heard it again my radio on my way home. I still don’t know why it’s so suddenly popular again right now and it’s puzzling me.
Anyway, it has stood the test of time, and I think that’s about the only way to actually find the greatest songs.

Which version, though? :) That sounds like you mean the original?
I suppose it’s one way to judge them :) But yes, that’s why my favourite has not changed for over 30 years - I don’t get tired of it. Much like this one.

Yes, the original keeps playing on radio stations near me for some reason.
(Even the piped link gave away the “WqXcQ” in the url)
I have NewPipe installed, so YouTube links automatically open in that instead.(YouTube must be disabled as default app).That’s the best fix that I know for that issue.
Also, NewPipe works great because it keeps playing when the screen is off and so, so I highly recommend it if you have issues with Google.
