FairreLilette Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 My favorite covers are mostly Bob Dylan related though often times I prefer Bob's original over the cover. My two favs are The Byrd's with My Back Pages and Jimi Hendrix with All Along the Watchtower. I'll post The Byrds cover of Dylan's My Back Pages as it's probably the lesser known of the two.

FairreLilette Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I like Patti Smith's version of "Because the Night" better than Bruce Springsteen's version who wrote it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tari Landar Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I can't actually share most of my favs because..well, NSFLLE (not safe for LL eyes ) This next one is one I send to a lot of people, most especially those I think need to hear it, and it is absolutely amazing (check out this band if you are unaware of them, I have introduced so many people to them, they are absolutely amazing, and this song, in particular should be listened to on the loudest volume you can...ijs). This song, even in its original form, speaks volumes to me on levels that can be difficult for some to understand. But I know what its like to be in a position to need to hear it, or something like it I should say. If it weren't for meeting hubby all those years ago, and him having played this song (the original) even back then, I'd still be in a position to need to hear it. This was a remake more than cover, but, who doesn't love it anyway? Ok, I'll be nice and stop posting for a few 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna Bliss Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Eva Cassidy...she's a kind of master of covers, but I especially like her rendition of Fields of Gold: 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChinRey Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 5 hours ago, Madelaine McMasters said: I prefer this to Phil's original... Phil's? "Land Of Confusion" is a Genesis song, written by Michael Rutherford. Phil Collins was the singer in Genesis at that time but I don't think that's enough to call it his song. In any case. I'm really not sure what to think of Katzenjammer's version. Yes, it's a bit of silly fun and yes, the original had a lot of humour in it too but it was pitch black humour. Is it really a good idea to change a song with such a serious theme into slapstick comedy? It can work but you have to be very, very careful and I at least don't feel Katzenjammer was.They seem to have treated it as just an other emptyheaded pop song with words that have no meaning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddy Vortex Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 These artists doing these covers are far better than what Anette did with the originals. Because Anette sucks and Nightwish choosing her as Tarja's replacement was the biggest mistake of their career. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordyn McGregor Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Curse you @Tari Landar for beating me with Zombie!!! Technically not a cover as it is an audition, but he has since released a cover of the whole song, but it's not as powerful as this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
