In reply to XYZ.

Actually, it's not about youth at all. Bobby is completely irrelevant outside the US. I'm 33. I also had no idea who he was before Britney released her cover because Britney is an international superstar and an icon. Bobby is only known internationally for being with Whitney Houston. All his musical success as a solo artist or as a member of a group is only remembered in America. Comparing him to Britney Spears is laughable. Also, her version is far better than his. He really ought to be grateful. She actually did make his material relevant again for a while.
