Favourite covers...

[Wibble]

You've got to be kidding

That Jeff Buckley cover sounds like a kid trying to sound worldly. You really can't sing that song unless you've lived.

Perhaps that is why, despite loving the song and liking his version, I don't love it in the same way many do. I actually think I might prefer KD Lang's version.

One of the best and most subversive songs ever written either way.

Various - Carnation (original by the jam)

 

[Mr. Wood]

Feist - Inside and Out (Originally by the Bee Gees)

The video starts with her introducing her band - fast forward to about the 50 second mark

Also, I've decided that I'll be marrying her at some point.

Also, I prefer John Cale's version of Hallelujah to Buckley's ... here's one I found on youtube, but I prefer the live version I downloaded years ago.

I don't like that version but I know the Cale version you are talking about and I do like that one.

How about this for an utterly dire version from Noggie Idol?

And a great version by KD Lang

 

[Wibble]

And a pretty decent version from Australian Idol

 

[Johnno]

Best cover ever....

I've just come back from a Beck gig, he did a cover of the Korgis' 'everybodys got to learn sometime'.

It was rubbish.

I can't watch youtube vids in work, but I am guessing ADTR is A Day to Remember? Is it you had me at hello? I've just put that on a cd I've made for a mate, along with Spoken's cover of Time After Time, quality song.
