Artists That Should Never Ever Be Covered. Ever.
KharBevNor:
Laibach's cover of Across the Universe is amazing. They have a choir of basically Hitler Youth singing it in the video. Probably the creepiest time they exposed a disturbing fascist undercurrent in a song was their cover of Queens 'One Vision' which they retitled 'Geburt Einer Nation' (Birth of a Nation) and sung in German.
"Ein Mensch, ein Ziel,
und eine Weisung.
Ein Herz, ein Geist,
nur eine Loesung.
Ein Brennen der Glut.
Ein Gott, Ein Leitbild.
Ein Fleisch, ein Blut,
ein wahrer Glaube.
Ein Ruf, ein Traum,
ein starker Wille
Gibt mir ein Leitbild"
I can never listen to that song in the same way now.
elcapitan:
Anyone else heard Nouvelle Vague's cover of the Dead Kennedy's Too Drunk To Fuck?
It shouldn't work with acid jazz, BUT IT DOES!
Johnny C:
It's bossa nova, not acid jazz.
Ben yayayayayayayay:
I bet Elliott Smith could cover the Microp...shit nevermind.
I seriously think he could though if it weren't for that one obvious setback, cause their voices are very similar to me.
And I think it's possible to do a decent cover of Neutral Milk Hotel, as long as the song is Holland, 1945 and no other song. Sigur Ros should cover Holland, 1945 (?!).
KharBevNor:
I'm constantly toying with the idea of covering 'In The Aeroplane Over the Sea' for Ill Met By Moonlight. My only barrier is trying to replicate the brass. I've got something close on my harmonica, but I'm going to wait till I get a diatonic before I try anything resembling recording.
