| Which song is better? The original or the cover? To qualify, the cover must be a recorded version, as there are infinity live covers in existence (give or take a smaller level of infinity...nerd joke). Any suggestions will be reviewed. Please feel free to argue. FORMAT: Song - Winner>Loser (any required explanation) Ground Control to Major Tom - David Bowie>Peter Schilling Hooked on a Feeling - B.J. Thomas>Blue Swede>David Hasselhoff Fly Like an Eagle � Steve Miller Band>Seal Baby I Love Your Way � Peter Frampton>Will to Power Maybe I'm Amazed - Paul McCartney>Lonestar Bitches Ain't Shit - Ben Folds>Dr. Dre Land of Confusion - Genesis>Disturbed Mony, Mony - The Lovin' Spoonful>Billy Idol Where Is My Mind? - NadaSurf>The Pixies Let It Whip - SR-71>The Dazz Band Kids in America - Kim Wilde>LEN>Bloodhound Gang In the Sun - Joseph Arthur>Michael Stipe Gold Dust Woman - Fleetwood Mac>Hole Because the Night Belongs to Lovers - 10,000 Maniacs>Jan Wayne Destination Unknown - Smashing Pumpkins>Sash! Faith - George Michael>Limp Bizkit Such Great Heights - Iron and Wine>The Postal Service Fell in Love with a Girl/Boy - The White Stripes>Joss Stone (Why would you cover a brand new song? And why would you change the lyrics? And why would you make it all gay?) Sweet Dreams - The Eurhythmics>Marylin Manson I Want You to Want Me - Cheap Trick>Letters to Cleo Dizzy - Self>Tommy Roe Let It Whip - SR-71>The Dazz Band Paint It Black - The Rolling Stones>Vanessa Carlton Tiny Dancer - Ben Folds>Elton John Snowblind - System of a Down>Black Sabbath Light My Fire - The Doors>Tommy Tucker Pretty Woman - Roy Orbison>Van Halen Money - Pink Floyd>Velvet Revolver Gold Dust Woman - Fleetwood Mac>>>>>>Hole Get Your Hands Off My Woman - The Darkness>Ben Folds Imagine - John Lennon>A Perfect Circle (This was quite an easy choice.) Live and Let Die - Paul McCartney and Wings>Butch Walker>Guns and Roses Walk this Way - Aerosmith>>>>>>>>>Macy Gray There She Goes - Sixpence None the Richer>The La's Brown-Eyed Girl - Van Morrison>Everclear (Easily) I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor>everyone else>Cake (Cake sucks.) I Think We're Alone Now - Tommy James & The Shondells>Tiffany It's My Life - Talk Talk>No Doubt (No, Gwen didn't write this crappy song.) Take My Breath Away - Berlin>>>>Jessica Simpson (She is just terrible. Why does she always act like she's having a seizure when she sings?) Baker Street - Foo Fighters>Gerry Rafferty Hide Your Love Away - Eddie Vedder>The Beatles (Sorry, people. I just like his better, though I think I like the vocals of the loser better.) Smooth Criminal - Alien Ant Farm>Michael Jackson Another Brick in the Wall, Pt. 2 - Pink Floyd>Class of '99 Behind Blue Eyes - The Who>Limp Bizkit D'yer Maker - Sheryl Crow>Led Zeppelin (I don't really like this song, but I'd rather hear her moan than Robert Plant.) Dancing in the Moonlight - Smashing Pumpkins>Thin Lizzy The Bluest Eyes in Texas - A-Camp>Restless Heart (I haven't heard Restless Heart's version, but I'm pret-ty sure it's not better than good ole Nina.) Clone (We're All) - The Smashing Pumpkins>Alice Cooper (I hate when songs have parentheses in their titles...stated in parentheses.) Drift Away - Dobie Gray>Uncle Kracker (Hard choice? Nope.) Landslide - Fleetwood Mac>The Smashing Pumpkins>Dixie Chicks Can't Hurry Love - Phil Collins>The Supremes Heroes - David Bowie>The Wallflowers My Sharona - The Knack>Veruca Salt She Don't Use Jelly - Ben Folds Five>The Flaming Lips You're all I've Got Tonight - The Smashing Pumpkins>The Cars I'm a Believer - The Monkees>Smash Mouth (easy choice) My Generation - The Who>Green Day Burnin' Down the House - The Cardigans and Tom Jones>The Talking Heads (Not that the original is bad at all...VERY tough decision, and it proboaly resulted in this because of Nina...Tom Jones is scary...especially in the video. The shiny, dancing things are cool, though.) Let's Go All the Way - Insane Clown Posse>Sly Fox The Boys Are Back in Town - Thin Lizzy>The Cardigans LA Woman - Days of the New>The Doors (I'm probably gonna get crap for this one...BRING IT!) Iron Man - The Cardigans>Black Sabbath Reelin' in the Years - Marvelous 3>Steely Dan (Man, SD's singer can't hold a tempo.) Always Something There to Remind Me - Marvelous 3>The Naked Eyes Hurt - Johnny Cash>Nine Inch Nails American Pie - Don McLean>Madonna (EASY choice.) What a Fool Believes - Self>The Doobie Brothers (TDB's version is good, but Self's was made with only toy instruments.) Somebody's Baby - Jackson Browne>Phantom Planet Turn the Page - Metallica>Bob Seger Boys of Summer - The Ataris>Don Henley (This was kinda a tough choice since I hate punk, but I like how this one sounds more.) Blue Monday - Orgy>New Order Video Killed the Radio Star - The Presidents of the United States of America>The Buggles HOME PAGE |
