oops I did it again

<p>I wish I could post the link, but I was highly amused to listen to Richard Thompson covering Oops I did it again?</p>

<p>Any other favorite covers?</p>

<p>(DH likes both Hendrix and Battlestar Gallactica’s version of All along the Watchtower better than Dylan’s original.)</p>

<p>I love Jeff Buckley’s cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.”</p>

<p>I agree with you on “Ooops!” The embarrassing part is that the tune got stuck in my head, and I found myself singing it to myself. My kids were mortified. They were so very over Brittany!</p>

<p>Cake’s version of “I Will Survive”</p>

<p>Funnily enough tonight we were watching a Stargate Atlantis DVD and they played Johnny Cash’s “Solitary Man”. My younger son was shocked. He only knew the Finnish roch band HIM’s version. “That’s a cover?!”, he said shocked. Of course the Cash version is actually a cover of Diamond…</p>

<p>I always thought that Oops was the best of the songs Brittany Spears sang.</p>

<p>Elvis Costello did a very nice cover of a Spear’s song (can’t remember the title) for a season 2 episode of House.</p>

<p>Today, I’m loving Gary Jules’ and Michael Andrews’ cover of Mad World, though those are some seriously <em>dark</em> lyrics:</p>

<p>“I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
That the dreams where I’m dying
Are the best I’ve ever had.”</p>

<p>Sheesh, I’m even having a pretty good day, and those lyrics are bringing me down a bit! Beautiful, haunting singing, though.</p>

<p>I’ve always thought Linkin Park’s cover of Behind Blue Eyes was much preferable to The Who’s original version.</p>

<p>_Psych are you sure Linkin Park redid that song? The only remake I have heard is the Limp Bizkit cover. I like both the original and the Link cover.</p>

<p>I honestly don’t like to many of the cover songs that has been done. I can only link of the one above and three others that I like:
Disturbed: Land of Confusion (Genesis cover)
Godsmack: Good Times, Bad Times (Led Zeppelin cover)
Uncle Kracker: Drift Away (originally recorded by John Henry Kurtz in 1972 but the Dobie Gray cover is the most known version)</p>

<p>Oh I forgot a cover
Last Kiss- Pearl Jam ( Wayne Cochran)
the Cavaliers released a version in 1964 that was popular but I thought was sappy beyond belief even though I was seven?
When Pearl Jam started playing it I thought I was going to throw up & every time I went to the grocery I had to go by the vintage shop where Eddie had found the original 45 that gave him the " bright idea".</p>

<p>When they played the Gorge and Vedder climbed onto the roof of the sound stage ( that was about 8 ft from where I was) and sang Last Kiss, I thought my H was going to start rolling in the aisles, however- of the versions I do admit that Pearl Jam makes it sound much better than it is.</p>

<p>Yeah, it probably was Limp Bizkit. My bad!</p>

<p>Seriously. You’re bad. You’re a bad person for liking Limp Bizkit. Limp Bizkit is a terrible band.</p>
