Space Cowboy 0 Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 well, that's a strong opinion, but i have always like pearl jam, but i'm getting a little sick of their political stuff, and i really didn't care for eddie vedder's storytellers scene where he changes the meaning of betterman to being about bush instead of his stepfather Link to post Share on other sites
Levis 6 Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Has this been mentioned? I Am The Walrus - Oasis Sacrilege? I do not care Link to post Share on other sites
The Seeker 0 Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 I don't think it's better than the original, but it gets a all the same because it;s very good Link to post Share on other sites
edna 6 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 "You Were on my Mind" - Barry McGuire The original was by We Five, I believe? Link to post Share on other sites
Lucky 5 Posted October 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Here's an interesting clip somebody put together. It's a comparison of "Please Read the Letter". Written by and performed on the album "Walking Into Clarksdale" ~ Page & Plant. Plant & Krauss covered it on their album and the result is interesting .... better? I dunno, but definately different, and I like it. Please Read the Letter Link to post Share on other sites
edna 6 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 The MOtels made an excellent version of "He Hit Me (And It Felt Like A Kiss)" Link to post Share on other sites

Lucky 5 Posted October 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 It's hard to comment on each one huh? That's why I don't try! It's enough to give us a chance to listen. No problem, luverly edna!! Link to post Share on other sites
bazooka 0 Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Harlem Shuffle -- Vigon Absolutely terrific cover of Bob and Earl's classic. Haven't found much about French soul singer Vigon. Maybe edna or another European Songfactor can educate me. Looks like this is his signature number. Link to post Share on other sites
Batman 2 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 IMO Stevie Wonder's version of We Can Work It Out is hte only Beatles cover I've heard that's definitely better than the original. Earth Wind and Fire's Got To Get You Into My Life might be better too. Link to post Share on other sites
bazooka 0 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Heart Full Of Soul -- Chris Isaak "may be better" is in the ear of the beholder, but damned good in any case. Link to post Share on other sites

edna 6 Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 "Born To Cry" - Johnny Thunders Not better but a very good cover. Dion´s original is one of my fave songs anyways... Link to post Share on other sites

Wyld Card 5 Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 I've seen that list before, and I agree with both the Best and Worst Tens. There's a lot of covers I can think of that are missing from the main list though. Link to post Share on other sites

LeeBB 0 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Well, is it possible that nobody has mentioned the Beatles' version of Twist And Shout?? I'm a proud Australian, so how about: The Zoot's Eleanor Rigby from 1970 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_3IUASoqfM Incredible!! That's Rick Springfield on the killer guitar, and Beeb Birtles from LRB is in there too. YOU MUST LISTEN TO THIS!! See ya, LeeBBB Link to post Share on other sites
Tenacious_Peaches 0 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I have never seen that before, Lee. Good stuff. P.S. I love me some Rick Springfield. Link to post Share on other sites
LeeBB 0 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Here's one that well worth the finding: Harry Nilsson's version of She's Leaving Home from his wonderful debut album. He recorded it only days after first hearing the riginal. The Beatles soon after described Harry as their favourite US act. Coincidence? LBB Link to post Share on other sites
