Cover Songs!
Posted on June 30, 2008 at 11:31 PM
So there is this other blog that I frequent a lot (redundant much?). One of the topics that comes up sometimes is the "Great Debate" - top 3 songs from a given artist. Discuss amongst yourselves sort of thing.
Pair that with the old High Fidelity (the movie, which is awesome) mixtape motif, and you have this blog entry.
Top 3 cover songs that were better than the original. Go.
My top 3 are:
- Voodoo Chile (originally done by Jimi Hendrix, redone by Stevie Ray Vaughan)
- In Your Eyes (originally done by Peter Gabriel, redone by Jeffrey Gaines)
- Turn the Page (originally done by Bob Seger, redone by Metallica)
Honorable mention goes to Praying For Time (originally done by George Michael, sung by Carrie Underwood at the American Idol charity convert). To my knowledge this has not been released on an album. It's really good, though.
