Cover Versions

[Karl_b]

Just found Beck doing Raspberry Beret, very good.

[Karl_b]

Ive gotten round to downloading some of the ones mentioned on here that I had never heard and have to say that the following are exceptional:

 

Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah

Beck - Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometimes

Jose Gonzalez - Love Will Tear Us Apart

Jose Gonzalez - Hand On Your Heart

Jose Gonzalez - Teardrop

Ben Harper - Strawberry Fields

John Martyn - Glory Box

[Karl_b]

Dont think this has been mentioned; Black Crowes - Hard to Handle

[Stu Monty]

Jamelia's version of Numb by Linkin Park is pretty good if you haven't heard it before.

 

Elbow's version of Teardrop something you would think might be good but is dissapointing compared to the original and the Gonzalez version.

[cochcaer]

Linkin Park are so very fuckin gay, as is all 'nu metal.'

 

I was reading Xabi's blog earlier and he likes Nirvana... and erm... Robbie Williams.

Hmmm. Curiouser and curiouser.

 

Anyone hear the version of the current Sigur Ros tune (Theme to Planet Earth) being covered by We Are Scientists on Radio 1 this week? Very ambitious and also very, very good. Not as good as the original but it was very pleasing on the ear.

 

Just found a link for it: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/jowhiley/live_lounge/we_are_scientists_gallery/1.shtml

 

Click 15 minutes in and you are bang on the Sigur Ros tune. Enjoy.

 

 

Oh and if someone wants to repay this investigative research with somehow ripping it off the net and telling me where I can download it then feel free.

[Owen]

Try the Seu Jorge covers of Bowie songs from The Life Aquatic soundtrack.

[Uncle_Meat]

Placebo - Bigmouth Strikes Again (The Smiths)

Disturbed - Shout (Tears for Fears)

Marilyn Manson - Tainted Love (Soft Cell)

Rammstein - Das Model (Kraftwerk)

Frank Zappa - Murder by Numbers (Sting)

Pancreatic Aardvarks - Judas as Black Moth (Current 93)

Levellers - S.O.S. (Abba)

Helloween - Hocus Pocus (Focus)

Nivana - Lake of Fire (Meat Puppets)

 

 

They'll do for now...

[Owen]

Less Than Jake have done some particularly ace covers too. I Would Walk 500 Miles and I Think I Love You. They also did and album of Grease covers.

[Guest TK-421]

Seaweed - Go Your Own Way (Fleetwood Mac).

 

As heard on the soundtrack for Clerks.

[duncan]

Madness-It must be love

[RedinSweden]

Teenage Fanclub - here comes your man

[Stu Monty]

Any of you gays listened to my link yet?

[Spy Bee]

Has Billy Jean by Ian Brown been mentioned? If not, it has now.

[RedinSweden]

Sigur Ros are playing in Sweden in the summer at the amazing Dalhalla

It's not on Limewire yet, but the best ones tend to make it there eventually.

Thanks for that but it wasn't really an answer to "Have any of you gays listened to that link" now, was it?

[Guest TK-421]

Get a job.

[Stu Monty]

Get a job.

 

Yeah. Unless you can rip the track of the net and send me it of course...but if you can't do that then get a fucking job you paracite.

[Karl_b]

I'll do it for you Stu. I wont even click all over the place this time either.

[Stu Monty]

Good lad Karl. Couldn't remember who did the shoddy yet generous job last time.

[Count Morfeo]

The Count feels he must point out a noticeable absentee on this thread.

Jim Shuler's (sp?) version of Lead Belly's Western Plain, which has also been covered by Rory Gallagher.

The Count has spent many an enjoyable evening listening and playing along to the DAGDAD tuned ditty in his Belfry.

 

Men and women of the forum, you will enjoy the Count's contribution.

[Guest TK-421]

I use Emule+ for all my P2P needs. Unfortunately Belgian and Swiss police seized the Razorback2 servers and arrested the folk who ran them. Razorback2 was by far the best server. Donkey Server No.2 has come to the rescue and now assumed the mantle of best Emule server.

 

Emule is nowhere near as fast as Limewire but has far better content, in my opinion.

[Karl_b]

Here you go Stu - click free I believe.

 

Hoppipolla (Sigur Ros cover) - We Are Scientists.mp3

[Stu Monty]

You sir, are a top class gent.

 

Funny at the start when they are trying to get it going and hitting mad chords but I still like it; very brave attempt.
