Fell in Love With a Boy Reviews:
More R&B Thefts from Rock to pass it off as new 
2005-12-31 - It's not enough that we listen to countless rappers steal lyrics, cords, and whole bars of rock to use in some studio designed crap that doesn't resemble the closest bit of musical talent, but now whole songs. The White Stripes make a point of playing raw original rock influenced by blues and even country while paying homage to the great rock of the past. Joss Stone emasculated the song, and twisted it into another cookie cutter Mariah Carey rip off to whine to. How many different sounds can we get out of her lungs and call it crooning...Wow, maybe if she played any of the music herself I could at least respect that, but like all R&B and rappers alike, that's just too much work. Steal it, that's the easy way out.
A much stronger voice than Jack's. 
2004-06-11 - Joss' cover of Jack Whyte's tune is superior to the original in every way. A stronger voice, a funkier arrangement and a better (more subtle) guitarist in Little Beaver. This was one of the highlights of the Soul Sessions, a cd filled with highlights. The White Stripes' original sounds bland and predictable next to Joss.
Looking forward to her upcoming disc of originals.
Fell in love with Joss.
2004-04-03 - I'm shocked at the reviews of this single. This song has really caught on to me. I think Joss has an unusual sounding voice that makes her special, new talent. Who cares if she remakes songs? A lot of artists do that, some of them being very reputable artists. I wish Joss the best, I think she has some real talent.
Decent voice, horrible cover
2004-03-18 - Although Joss Stone does have an intriguing voice, her cover of "Fell in Love with a Girl" isn't worth buying or even listening to on TV. She took a great song and made it into a waste of time. If she's going to continue messing up songs, she should at least wait until she builds a somewhat decent fanbase so there will be people who don't want to smack her upside the head.
