Author Topic: Amazing Covers cleome46 or you can do the confusion 'til your head falls off posted                        I stumbled on Beverly McClellan's original stuff totally by accident a week or so ago. I love this snippet of her singing the Who's "Teenage Wasteland," and giving it some pretty bluesy overtones. -------------------- Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on flickr. Drop by and tell me that I sent you.

Registered: Jul 2005  |  IP: Logged |  Fanfic Lady Now my heart is full posted                          Ray Davies of the Kinks is, in my opinion, one of those great songwriters whose singing voice puts me off. Thus, I present my five favorite Kinks covers, in chronological order: The Pretenders, "I Go To Sleep" (1979) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yoR7fg2pE0 Van Halen, "Where Have All the Good Times Gone?" (1982) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke3ua0kLhYA The Fall, "Victoria" (1988) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbQBdvEg_40 Kirsty MacColl, "Days" (1989) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOKWqtocXWs Def Leppard, "Waterloo Sunset" (2005) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMnNP8aKBwc -------------------- "I know it's gonna happen someday." Registered: Jul 2005  |  IP: Logged |  Jerry active posted                        Thanks for posting all the Davies covers, FL. So many great covers of "I Go To Sleep" and the Pretenders is my favorite. -------------------- No regrets, Coyote.

(And on a semi-related note, there's this.) -------------------- Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on flickr. Drop by and tell me that I sent you. From: Vanity, OR | Registered: Dec 2008  |  IP: Logged |  Jerry active posted                        Seal has a new cover album. Every song is a treat. Seal covers Marvin -------------------- No regrets, Coyote.

From: Missouri | Registered: Oct 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Fanfic Lady Now my heart is full posted                          More Annie, this time covering Neil Young: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23aYZf18i-c My thanks to Harbi, as well. -------------------- "I know it's gonna happen someday." Registered: Jul 2005  |  IP: Logged |  Fanfic Lady Now my heart is full posted                          This won't get me any points for hipness, but I don't care. And it's worth noting that the Martha & the Vandellas original not only missed the pop Top 40, but didn't even make the R&B Top Five. So I thank Phil for introducing me to a beautiful song I might otherwise have never heard. Phil Collins, "In My Lonely Room" -------------------- "I know it's gonna happen someday." Registered: Jul 2005  |  IP: Logged |  Set There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met. posted                           I love covers of Depeche Mode's Enjoy the Silence, particularly Lacuna Coil's. But this is surely the strangest and coolest cover... Registered: Aug 2006  |  IP: Logged |  cleome46 or you can do the confusion 'til your head falls off posted                        Barbara Lynn brings her awesomeness to "Don't Be Cruel." -------------------- Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on flickr. Drop by and tell me that I sent you. From: Vanity, OR | Registered: Dec 2008  |  IP: Logged |  Dave Hackett The Red Legionnaire posted                       Never liked Houston, and I've not really listened much to the Parton version, but Soundgarden was the later I worshipped at in the '90s and Chris Cornell really nails this version of "I Will Always Love You" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgFAq9Q8l8U From: Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada | Registered: Sep 2004  |  IP: Logged |  cleome46 or you can do the confusion 'til your head falls off posted                        Brazil's Pato Fu introduces kids to "Bohemian Rhapsody," via toy instruments. (I believe the CD name, Musica de Brinquedo translates as "Toy Music.") Unfortunately, I can't translate the puppet banter for you all, because I don't speak Portuguese. But the music part begins around 1:45. [ February 28, 2012, 08:46 PM: Message edited by: cleome45 ] -------------------- Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on flickr.

From: Vanity, OR | Registered: Dec 2008  |  IP: Logged |  Jerry active posted                        Bonnie Raitt covers the late Gerry Rafferty's biggest hit on her latest album. It's hard to beat the smooth vocals of Rafferty's original. Never the less, Bonnie is as classy as ever, the song deserves a revival, and the album is excellent. Right Down the Line -------------------- No regrets, Coyote.
