Captain Scarlet Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Its a touchy subject as it depends entirely how much you like the original. If the original is your favourite song then I'm sure you wouldn't want it covered. I can think of many covers that I love, but I didn't like or found the original too boring. Vice versa, I can think of many covers which I think "killed" some brilliant originals, but that is because I love the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendrix Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) Don't Stop Believing - Journey. I honestly want to kill the people who just re-did it. *Edit* I'm also hating how Spotify now says '(as made famous by Glee Cast)', and not '(as made famous by Journey)'.

El Cristoff Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Pissed off with Westlifes failure attempt of 'What About Now' by Chris Dautry... Was soooo pissed off when i heard it the first time round. Also, anything by Alexisonefire or City & Colour, No-one will ever be able to sing like Dallas Green so just don't even try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alien ant farm, smooth criminal. was pretty good Killswitch engage, holy diver= fail Marilyn manson, sweet drreams. Good Marilyn manson, tainted love. Good A few examples for my money dunno what everyone else thinks of these songs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManxTrialSpaz Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Was talking to someone at work today who's in a small-time band. He said his band does Bryan Adam's song and the like - the kinda things you'd expect. But then he said they play Paranoid. Bitch, please. Cannot ever cover a voice like Ozzy. Especially in Paranoid. I also second that Sweet Child O' Mine can never be covered. However, an example of covers being better than the original: The Ataris - Boys of Summer. Just thought I'd throw that in.
