Cover Songs

[tboy]

I first heard this song in a commercial that was forwarded to me, I thought it was a beautiful cover of a classic GnR song and wanted to pass it on.

Sweet Child O' Mine


What cover songs do you enjoy?

Here's a sheryl crow version that is simply amazing....

I like this video of the Corrs, I think they do "Little Wing" good, but they are so hot too!!

and those accents....whoa.....gives me shivers....

and an awesome cover of whiter shade of pale....

Billy Preston wrote and recorded "You Are So Beautiful" a year before Joe Cocker made it a hit.

 

[Kenwoody]

I was fully expecting the Corrs Little Wing to suck, but I thought that was brilliant. Here are my two contributions:

And unfortunately I could not find Tracy Chapman and Natalie Merchant doing Elvis' In the Ghetto.

 

[Kyra.Graves]

All this time and I forgot about Camp Freddy a cover band with it's share of known artists and special guests.

 

[Kyra.Graves]

It has been brought to my attention that this cover needs to be added to the thread.

And another one. I absolutely hate Lady GaGa, however Chris Daughtry's cover shows the problem is that whacked out loon and not necessarily the music:

[Brill]

I really like this original version of "I've Got My Mind Set On You" from 1962 which George Harrison later had a hit with.

 

[Hammerstein]

Yeah that was kinda funny

on a side note Peter Tosh version is pretty nice as well
