Spot on ! Forgot that one good save

I'm torn on ya really got me but

Pull up the Louie primo song he covered off the same lp

"I ain't got nobody". ( you know it ) that should be here as well ...you know I'm so sad and lonely , great cover

Hey you wasn't "hard to handle" a cover ? That should go as well !!

Hard to Handle was an Otis Redding song covered by the Crowes, yes.

david watts - the jam

"So Sad About Us" covered by The Jam (The Who)
"Suck" covered by The Twilight Sad (The Wedding Present)
"Hounds Of Love" covered by Futurehaeds (Kate Bush)
"Confetti" covered by Frightened Rabbit (The Lemonheads)
"I'll Feel A Whole A Lot Better" covered by The Coral (The Byrds)

I love to listen to my favourite songs covered by my favourite bands.

I was a huge The Smiths and The Jam fan (still am)far before I got into Oasis.
One day I found The Jam's "Carnation" covered by some band called Oasis on winmix (god, do you still remember?), so I downloaded and listened. I quite liked it.

Then another day I found "To Be Someone" covered by someone called Noel Gallagher.
I downloaded it and listened to it again and to be honest, I didn't like it cos to me it was quite dull, nothing like the original.

Later I read that those my 2 life time bands had a huge influence for young Noel Gallagher, then many years later he covered "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out".

The Smiths and The Jam "introduced" me Oasis. Well done, lads.

Pretty much all the Beatles covers on their early records. There's a few exceptions but they generally appeal to me more then the originals.

This one:


That original was.....weird. Also before Queensryche became complete tools, all the band sucks now.

Not gonna put a song in this one just say well put Mimi !

Back in the 80s my best friend Carl and I were the only ones in our very large group into anything but the usual suspects ( which we loved. No bigger BEATLE fanatic than he and . No bigger zep fanatic than I )

But we were drawn to punk together as pre teens and that evolved into searching the record baron for something other than the stones , who ect ect ...

And we stumbled UPon gold ! The jam , then the smiths , and of course the clash ...all our friends thought we were to. English and didn't get it til much much later ...that put us ahead of the curve for music cred in our group and when we said check out this lot OASIS they did and they to were in it from the beginning ..

Had it not been for the jam ,and the smiths , and clash ,, we never would have been ahead of the curve with oasis. Even though I was in UK at the time it was the earlier music that drew me there way

Well done indeed !

Thanks MIMI.
Too keep this on topic

Stand by me - John Lennon

So did puta song in afterall

Hammerfall-Youth Gone Wild (Skid Row)
Apocalyptica-Nothing Else Matters (Metallica)
Rammstein- Stripped (Depeche Mode)
Blind Guardian- Surfin'USA (Beach boys)

Single-handedly down to the vocal power of John Lennon in the sixties...






and...

For @waitingforsally and @kitjenson both know a thing or two about this

TEXAS FLOOD - STEVIE RAY VAUGHN

Well that's your opinion so fair enough but I think Lennon has much more power in his voice and sings the song with a lot more energy but each to their own I guess...
