Did you know TLC’s Waterfalls is a sorta-cover of a deep cut from Paul McCartney’s McCartney II? Did you know McCartney II is by far the best Beatles solo record? You know TLC’s Waterfalls is a classic. You know Bette Midler can sing. The Divine Miss M’s sparse piano-led ballad is a richly affecting transformative wonder, nailing emotion in perfect measure. Taken from upcoming covers LP It’s The Girls!, which, if Waterfalls is any indication, presents itself as something more than a conceited stocking filler cash-grab.
