With You by Chris Brown or With You (Acoustic) - Which one is the best?

You’ll definitely agree that Chris Brown’s With You is indeed a great song! RnB is one of my favorite genres and I'm convinced that Chris has done a great job on this song. While his other previous single had up-beat/hip-hop influenced tempo, "With You" was well-received by critics for its simple, strumming guitar harmony. Bill Lamb of About.com gave the song four and a half stars, and characterized it as "perfect slow dance option". He said "Chris Brown makes countless young fans swoon, but, until now, he has not yet released a top-notch romantic performance. With You is that performance. The lyrics may be a bit simplistic in the "you're everything, you make me swoon" style, but this sound is a great one for staring into your lover's eyes as you make your way across a darkened dance floor.


However, you might also be surprised how a band called “boyce avenue” “automagically” rearranged “With You” from an RnB genre to an acoustic one. Many people are also amazed by their performance. Some of them even commented that their version is better than the original! And I’m starting to think that way too! :) You can watch their video below… And see the difference…;)
