welsh1 Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 A lot of songs are copied and most of the time the original is always the best,but i just listened to while my guitar gently weeps in a tribute to George and the rich sound from all the artists and Eric through 8 speakers is wonderful,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rj4J6i_vw0w On the reverse side is this version,and this lads got talent http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puSkP3uym5k What other songs out there do you think do the original justice?

LondonLuke Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) Embarrassingly I quite like a Will Young version of Hey Ya.Linked here but appreciate perhaps the wrong age group for the majority. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rfrMUU7Skw&feature=youtu.be Edited September 4, 2013 by LondonLuke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big fan of the Radio 1 Live Lounge section (not particularly keen on the rest of the show). Worth a search on Youtube just for Live Lounge as it brings up all sorts of excellent covers. Another of my favourites.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosd Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 I like listening to cover tracks. I know this has been played to death but I do like this version of it. The two guys on the outer edges, particularly the black guy, doing beat box are also very good. Listen to this on a decent sound system to appreciate the whole thing.

bullet boy Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 "It Must Be Love"-Madness!! Much better than Labby Sifre's original version!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ack-ack Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Where to start? There are loads but a few that spring to mind are: Oasis doing *** on feel the noise Any johnny cash cover from his last album Ian browns version of billy jean is my all time fave cover. He made it his own. Good thread topic btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscarsdad Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) Live lounge is good...Article Monkeys doing Girls Aloud love machine was good, The Automatic version of Goldigger was great and Pigeon Detectives doing The Power of Love is brilliant and Band on the run covered by the foo fighters is great. And finally, not in the same league of gayness as liking will young, Mcfly doing town called malice is good.

-Mongrel- Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) Hendrix - All along the watchtower. Original inferior version by Bob Dylan. and a probably somewhat controversial one. Better than Soft Cell? I think so... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHxmCF88L04&feature=youtu.be Ok, why won't that embed?

ack-ack Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Pigeon Detectives doing The Power of Love is brilliant . Doh! Thought they were doing the frankie goes to hollywood one.
