Covers Only

As you probably know, this is a cover of a cover. The original was by The Vaselines.

OOPS! I did know that.

The lesson as always, don’t post after work at 3am in a sugar coma.

"Son of a Gun" and "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam" are also on that Vaselines comp.

Hallelujah (I Love Her So) · Humble Pie

She was at the Newport Jazz Festival last weekend. Unfortunately, I had another commitment the day she was there, but I did get to see her last year.

Let the music play...

If you plant ice, you're gonna harvest wind.

Can we all agree this is the best version?

Attn: Dominic, I’m positive I’ve posted this before in the long ago.

At a rehearsal for graduation, I was practicing introducing the student speakers, getting the pronunciation of their names correctly. I asked one student, Jacqueline Henoa, how to say her last name. "Hey now," she said.

So when it came time to practice introducing her, of course I said, Jacqueline Henoa, Henao, don't dream it's over."

She said it relaxed her completely, and she forgot how nervous she was. She killed it the next day at graduation.

“Hey now, you’re a rock star!” probably would’ve worked too.

Fairly obscure, but I would rate this as a successful R&B cover of Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel.

Dolores O'Riordan singing Go Your Own Way.

This might be the most unusual cover I've ever heard. Van Morrison does Stephen Sondheim.

I have always loved this version. Heartbreaking.

I guess except for the original version everything is a cover.

Homer’s cover was quite moving imo.

It's time to cover the Monkeys:

and here's my favorite, John Stewart covering the Monkeys covering John Stewart.

You mean covering Niel Diamond? He wrote it!

And John Stewart (Kingston Trio) wrote Daydream Believer. Both Monkees versions where better 😀

i don't know if some are better than others, but I thought they were all interesting. i always like it when a bluegrass band covers a pop song ;-)
