DMann2003 Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 I 2nd the Ben Harper cover of "Strawberry Fields Forever" In fact, pick up the I Am Sam soundtrack, nothing but Beatles covers. Eddie Vedder doing "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" Todd Rundgren doing "Rain" is good too
spiny norman Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 I'd just like to add two instrumentals which make my list. They were both on a Beatles tribute album which came out a few years ago. Jeff Beck - A Day In The Life. The guitar sounds so amazing in it. Vanessa Mae - Because. She did really well with it. That same album also has Celine Dion doing Here, There And Everywhere which is, to this date, the best song she has ever done (except for maybe Think Twice).
Use Your Illusion Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 UYI, who's the girl in your sig? Miss Use Your Illusion '03 - Katie Holmes.
Guest stardust Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 I'm gonna get lynched for this, but matchbox twenty does an awesome live version of "Don't Let Me Down."
C Dubya 04 Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Johnny Cash's cover of "In My Life" was great. But my favorite is Gov't Mule's cover of "She said, she said". Just a wonderful version of the song.
Zorin Industries Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Siouxsie and the Banshees cover of Helter Skelter is damn good
Nevermortal Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Godhead - Eleanor Rigby. ...... Kidding, Godhead is the worst.
Cartman Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Godhead - Eleanor Rigby. ...... Kidding, Godhead is the worst. You suck bro...
Nevermortal Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Godhead - Eleanor Rigby. ...... Kidding, Godhead is the worst. You suck bro... One of the worst bands ever.
nl5xsk1 Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 Oh, and does anyone have any opinions on Phish's live covers of several Beatles songs? I've never heard any of them, but apparently some of 'em are pretty good. Like said earlier, I'm kind of a Beatles hater, so I really didn't care for their versions, but Phish covered the entire White Album as a Halloween "costume" one year, and continued covering Day in the Life for a while afterwards. (they might have kept doing While My Guitar Gently Weeps, too, but a lot of my Phish concert memories are a bit, ahem, hazy.)
Cartman Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 Godhead? Worst bands ever? dont even belong in the same sentence. I can name 50 bands worse than Godhead.
Nevermortal Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 Godhead? Worst bands ever? dont even belong in the same sentence. I can name 50 bands worse than Godhead. I can name 1,503, 332 better
spiny norman Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 I take you up on that, Nevermortal. Name them all.
CanadianChris Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 I have no idea why, but I really like P.M. Dawn's cover of "Norwegian Wood." *ducks*
Guest "Fruity" Frankie Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 "Strawberry Fields forever" -Ben Harper That is a awesome cover.
Ripper Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 UYI, who's the girl in your sig? Miss Use Your Illusion '03 - Katie Holmes. What the fuck happened to her. I'm all for her posing topless, but she really isn't hot like she used to be. And Boyz II Men did a kickass yesterday.
Guest graph9 Posted December 5, 2003 Report Posted December 5, 2003 Peter Frampton's covers of The Long and Winding Road & Come Together. I thought both of them were off the chain. But since it came from a soundtrack of one of the shit movies of all time, no one paid attention to them. Im starting to think im the only one that did..hee
Guest mesepher Posted December 5, 2003 Report Posted December 5, 2003 ah yes, Gov't Mule's covers of "She Said, She Said >> Tomorrow Never Knows jam" are quite incredible. The Mule have also torn up "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" and then there is Mike Portnoy's "Yellow Mustard Custard" thing
Guest croweater Posted December 6, 2003 Report Posted December 6, 2003 I 2nd the Ben Harper cover of "Strawberry Fields Forever" In fact, pick up the I Am Sam soundtrack, nothing but Beatles covers. Eddie Vedder doing "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" Todd Rundgren doing "Rain" is good too Most of the I am Sam soundtrack is fantastic (much better than the movie). But all members of the band that covers "revolution" really need to be shot, in the head, with a gun.
Guest Harry Hood Posted December 8, 2003 Report Posted December 8, 2003 Phish has covered the entire white album on oct. 31, 1994. the only beatles songs still in they're catalog frequently are a day in the life, wmggw, and cry baby cry.
Art Sandusky Posted December 8, 2003 Report Posted December 8, 2003 Ben Folds' "Golden Slumbers" was pretty good, and one of the only good covers off of that I Am Sam soundtrack.
