golden_ann Posted November 29, 2004 Report Posted November 29, 2004 of your favorite songs? Okay, I love the song Always by Bon Jovi. (what, am I hearing snickers in the background?) I concede the fact that most of their lyrics are simply profound, or just profoundly simple.Either way, I like it! :: So, I can see Aerosmith doing a cover, with Steven Tyler's emotional and sometimes lusty screams kicking the song up a few levels. Or Boys II Men doing it up in that famous four-part harmony, coinciding nicely with the sweet sound of the strings. Just listen...
Carl Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 I think Johnny Cash could have nailed that one til' the words don't rhyme. There's a group called Frente with a female lead singer who has a very sweet voice. She also would be quite convincing. Now if we can find someone to cover "Stuck In The Middle With You" by Stealer's Wheel - and NOT Sheryl Crow.
golden_ann Posted December 1, 2004 Author Report Posted December 1, 2004 STuck In the Middle? Hmmmm...how about Dire Straits or Cheap Trick? Or maybe Matchbox Twenty. I think Rob Thomas's voice can pull that off well.
OLD 55 Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 of your favorite songs? Okay, I love the song Always by Bon Jovi. Celine Dion
vincegillstwin Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 "Stuck In The Middle With You" by Stealer's Wheel - and NOT Sheryl Crow. Ever see the Hanes Her Way commercial with that song in it? Too phunny!
edna Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 There´s an album called "I´m your fan" with lots of awesome remakes of songs of Leonard Cohen. John Cage, Nick Cave, REM among others...
Uncle Joe Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 Now if we can find someone to cover "Stuck In The Middle With You" by Stealer's Wheel - and NOT Sheryl Crow. Perhaps The Beatles? Ok, maybe just Paul McCartney! I've never been a big fan of re-makes because if I like the song I hate to see/hear someone ruin it with their own "interpretation". And who can ever forget Pat Boone's covers of Little Richard? God save us! That being said however, I must admit that I love the Warren Zevon Tribute CD, "Enjoy Every Sandwich: Songs of Warren Zevon". There are exceptions to every musical rule we make for ourselves. Let's see, hmmmm. I'd pay to hear kd lang do some more remakes of Joni Mitchell songs. Lang's "Help Me" is great. PS: What have you got against being stuck in the middle with Cheryl Crow?
edna Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 I love the original "Stuck in the middle with you". Maybe a bluesy version by... Otis, Janis, Barry White... impossible! no, no Joe Cocker... Maybe Patti Smith?
miamisammy29 Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 Now if we can find someone to cover "Stuck In The Middle With You" by Stealer's Wheel - and NOT Sheryl Crow. Well, the Goo Goo Dolls did a remake of "Give A Little Bit". It was okay. They would probably sound a lot like Stealer's Wheel.
Danielj Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 What about Audioslave doing Comfortably Numb?
Uncle Joe Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 BluesBoy, Jr. and I are getting together to do a remake of Hey Nineteen. We're looking for three gorgeous back-up singers. No, they won't be singing but we're looking for 'em anyway. Applications can be sent via Songfacts. Ok, ok...Sammy, you can join us too. But no kazoo!!
SoulGirl Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 do you have to be aged nineteen to apply??
Aunt_Acid Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 What about Audioslave doing Comfortably Numb? Nobody touches The Wall.
Uncle Joe Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 do you have to be aged nineteen to apply?? Hell no! We're rock stars after all.
stocky Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 Well Travis Meeks fron Days Of The New did an awsome version of the Door's The End on Vh1 Storytellers
edna Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 BluesBoy, Jr. and I are getting together to do a remake of Hey Nineteen. We're looking for three gorgeous back-up singers. No, they won't be singing but we're looking for 'em anyway. Applications can be sent via Songfacts. Ok, ok...Sammy, you can join us too. But no kazoo!! Oh, may I????? I´d love to!!! And Windy would do great, she sings very loud! Only I must ask permission to Mr. edna...
Danielj Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 Nobody touches The Wall. I've seen it. Live. And they touched it. And these were just local high schoolers.
Elvish Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 BluesBoy, Jr. and I are getting together to do a remake of Hey Nineteen. We're looking for three gorgeous back-up singers. No, they won't be singing but we're looking for 'em anyway. Applications can be sent via Songfacts. Ok, ok...Sammy, you can join us too. But no kazoo!! Is a slightly pregnant back-up singer acceptable? I'm still pretty cute - and my red hair would go well with BluesBoy's.
Uncle Joe Posted December 2, 2004 Report Posted December 2, 2004 Gisela, edna, Windy and Elvish...you're all hired. Do any of you play an instrument? We'll of course need your measurements so we can design your outfits for the video shoot. Elv, you can stand close to BluesBoy so that your hair and his create a burst of brilliance(besides, he sometimes needs assistance to stand up). How 'bout the rest of you gals? What hair color? Jr. requires a blonde (Carole?) while Sammy needs a brunette. Me? Well, uh...are any of you bald? I'll let you know when rehearsals start. Begin practicing your expressions for when you're on camera. And get those wiggles and shakes down pat. And, oh yeah...we're looking for a security guard now that Sammy's joined us. It's for your protection, girls. LOL "It's only rock and roll but I like it"!!!!!
