The version on Cree Summer's album is a great version. Van Hunt actually wrote the song for Cree Summer. He decided to record the stripped down version for his album as a way to highlight his song writing ability. I guess one is for the bedroom and one is for the dark room

Yeah, you're right! [from Wikipedia] Hunt wrote and co-produced the song "Hopeless" for singer Dionne Farris, formerly of Arrested Development, and joined her band on guitar and keyboards. "Hopeless" appeared on the soundtrack for the film Love Jones (1997). Hunt co-wrote several songs with Rahsaan Patterson on his album Love in Stereo (1999), and co-wrote with Cree Summer, including the song "Mean Sleep", for her album Street Faërie (1999), produced by Lenny Kravitz. He also collaborated with Joi on the single "Missing You" (2002). Through Dionne Farris, Hunt met A&R person Randy Jackson (who later went on to be a judge on Fox's American Idol). Jackson would become Hunt's manager in 2002.

Okay, so I’ve only heard Van’s version until I revisted this years later ( good ole KZbin). No comparison. This is much more soulful and passionate. I always wondered why Van is a musical hidden treasure. The creativity and production value he puts into his projects make me almost angry he never really got his just do. That’s like telling Stevie Wonder and Prince, aye it’s aite, but what else you got?

What can we scrape together From our loveworn emotions Handfuls of hate and the bittersweet devotion 'Cause I am pushing cobwebs and I'm floating into myself Who will find me under this mean sleep How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life You could burn a thousand days And I would need no other light You could die a thousand ways And I'd still love you back to life Without a lover to wake me and my loneliness like quicksand Who will find me under this mean sleep How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life I am lost to the longing I am moulded by the memory Had to shut down half my mind Just to steal the space you left behind 'Cause I am moving cobwebs and I'm floating into myself Who will find me under this mean sleep How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life

Van Hunt co-wrote this song with Cree. Cree did the song with Lenny. Honestly, I always wished Cree had sung it with Van Hunt. I like Lenny but I like Van Hunt's voice better for this kind of song. I think Van Hunt's voice is more soulful than Lenny and would have balanced out with Cree better.

Oh it definitely counts. Without Van Hunt, you have a different song. And if he "doesn't count" then why bring him in to co-write this ONE song on the album? Lol, let's be real.
