For some reason, I find Steve and Edie's version quite poignant.
Wow you must be very young or dumb?

Covers can be great, but if it's of a song you already love, it can be hard to get past your own mindset regarding the "classic".
I have a friend who loves covers and it's kinda like a hobby to him to compare and contrast versions. He recently sent me a cd with 9 different versions of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", which is a song I am familiar with but have always been indifferent to. It's almost like it's 9 completely different songs! A couple are really terrible, some are pretty damn good (Todd Rundgren, Jeff Healey), with the original somewhere around the middle. But when I heard a version by an unexpected grouping of Carlos Santana, YoYo Ma, and India.Arie, I thought "Now that's what this song was meant to be!" Spine tingling![]()
Oh and I think Sheryl Crow's cover of "Sweet Child O' Mine" was pretty damn unneccesssarry.
There's a hundred-thousand humorous jokes on this site. You don't seem to know any of them, or how to tell them effectively. I'll troll for you from now on.
If I troll for you, you get your laughs. You tell me where we start, where we're going, where we're going afterwards. I give you five minutes when we get there. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything a minute on either side of that and you're on your own. I don't sit in while you're making stupid jokes. I don't carry a gun. I troll.
That was ing terrible. Soundgarden shouldn't be played at some booshie tail hour.
Rod Stewart's got a whole catalogue of them. And do the ones from the cast of Glee even count? Pandora tried to play me their version of Sweet Caroline and it filled me with a murderous rage.
Yeah, Glee really butchered some songs -- they changed the word transsexual to sensational in "Sweet Transves e." A couple of their mash-ups are ok.
Ugh. ing Glee...
