It’s not exactly a faithful cover (Where’s the Left Eye rap interlude, Bette?), but there are some lovely bongos in this version of TLC’s “Waterfalls.” All kidding aside, Bette knows how to make this cover work without falling into deep, deep camp. TLC fans may giggle, but your mom might just call you to tell you how lovely she thinks this song is: “Who did the original?” And then you can tell her it’s about AIDS. What a big day that’ll be for you!
