good songs, bad versions

yeah, well i reckon every goddamn 80's song or older hits (it's not meant to be negative for the 80's, they were great) gets a dance clone these days. 't shows how creative the music scene works nowadays. Seems as if you can only make money when you run out of ideas.... :erk:

something like that

Yeah, I'm also a great fan of hers, but her covers can't get me excited, most of Strange Little Girls is boring for me. In fact, a good part of Scarlet's Walk is boring for me too, some songs at the beginning and at the end are good though, but she could well have cut the middle.
she has a lot of good covers that are not included in strange little girls. tell me about smells like teen spirit, love song, because the night, purple rain, angie, losing my religion! enjoy the silence cover is awesome too. is it the piano or simply tori herself, or both i'll never know.
 
i usually tend to like the covers more than the originals...

iron maiden < graveworm (fear of the dark)
accept < disbelief (dogs on leads)
acdc < six feet under (T.N.T.)
alice cooper < samael (i love the dead)
judas priest <<< death (painkiller)

there are exceptions, of course:
the police/sting > machine head (message in a bottle)

that one's kinda boring... once I had to listen to it for about hundred times at once. I like police, but that song's not the best in original neither
