Cover Songs
List several of your favorite cover songs. Or all of them. Or only one... it doesn't matter.
Then list the cover songs that are your least favorites.
Some Good Ones:
The Ataris "Boys Of Summer"; It's impossible for me to listen to the Don Henley version without thinking "Black Flag sticker" instead of "Deadhead sticker". The Codeseven version really doesn't do anything for me.
UB40 "Can't Help Falling In Love"; I don't know anyone who hates this song.
Emm Gryner "Pour Some Sugar on Me"; I love it!
Jason Faulkner, "Photograph"; It's punk, but it's fun!
Marginal Prophets, "Pour Some Sugar On Me": fun, and not at all like the original
The Moffatts "This Boy"; it's better than bad; it's good! Saccharine but fun, if you're in a "blast from the past" mood.
Mark Wills "One"; It's much better than the Babyface version
Martina McBride "Hit Me With Your Best Shot"; Gotta love Crossroads!
Bad Ones
Jessica Simpson "Take My Breath Away"/"Angels"; *wrinkles nose* *vomits*
Mariah Carey "Bringin' On The Heartbreak"; Oh-gag-me.
Lionel Ritchie "Long, Long Way to Go"; just NO!
Sabelle "Love Bites": Hello, Olivia Newton-John!
Brother Love Canal "Animal": Ugh.
Malibu Storm "Photograph"; it's kinda like Def Lep meets The Corrs, but the Corr siblings would do it better.
