Favorite Cover Songs

[JeeperG]

This has probably been covered by a million bands but I like Clutch's version.

Creedence is dear to me for reasons.....I should go try a Covid Karaoke. I got some vinyl

Probably not a good idea to listen to this at work. Or at church. Or around anyone with thin skin or young ears. NSFW X ELEVENTYBILLION.

I know, I know. Lana del Rey... but this is a pretty damn good cover!

Certainly better than the original, which isn't saying anything really.

My favorite comment:

I normally wake my kids up to Leo every Friday, but ... maybe not today...

That dude must make a hell of a living selling meth.

I love that guy. He plays all of the instruments on his solo songs.

Leo is a talented guy and normally his covers are pretty interesting. I expect this one would be too if I could get past the subject matter but nah.

It's certainly not his best cover song, and the original is very controversial and has been in the media a lot over the past month. Leo obviously covered this tune because of that controversy, as he knew it would generate a lot of traffic through his channel. I expect that is working for him.

That led me to this, and oh my damn.



I've watched it three times and it's still giving me chills.

Agreed

I've watched it three times and it's still giving me chills.

Highwomen have great harmonies, and Jason Isbell on guitar and his wife Amanda Shires on the left vocals/violin which is a great combination

Jason Isbell is one of my favorites. Saw him back in the day with the Truckers and have tickets to see the 400 Unit at the Eccles whenever that's allowed again (Was supposed to be this past summer!).

Interesting story about listening to this song; when I was in the hospital a while ago and they were prepping me to put a chest tube in the nurse asked, "What kind of music do you like and we'll put it on while they do the procedure" (they don't put you under). Now, I was already on a lot of pain killers and just generally feeling miserable. So I said, "Folk rock. People like Josh Ritter and Jason Isbell." The nurse just put Jason Isbell into Spotify and I remember this song and "Super 8" playing while laying there on the max dosage of Fentanyl as they shoved a tube between my ribs thinking, "Ya know... these songs are pretty damn depressing... maybe I should have said Katy Perry or something..."

Couple I didn't know about until my long trip across the USA this week

 

[Hickey]

Did someone post this one yet? Freakin love this version.

Let's be honest here. Britney has her own niche and she should stay in her lane.

 

[Pile of parts]

I like this modern take of a classic. Incredible musicians. Mike Portnoy, former Dream Theater drummer, is probably the most recognizable for many in this group.

There ya go!
