Funky See Funky Do posted:FnM's version of War Pigs. It's perfectly fine and well played but it doesn't really add anything to the original. It's just like what a decent Black Sabbath cover band would have done. Bathory's version was cool, though

I'm crazy because I sometimes find a song I really like and will try to track down covers to sort of 'hear it again for the first time'. It used to be insanely hard because there are so many songs with the same titles and Youtube Music isn't helpful in finding stuff at times. I think I used this a few times to narrow down to what I was looking for: https://secondhandsongs.com/ Specifically, a really neat feature is to be able to sort covers by release date. But I found a fun bit of trivia trying to find a Queen cover listed on the site for a band called "Killers": "In 1980 it was not possible to include Queen in compilations, so EMI created this band to cover Crazy Little Thing Called Love and include it in a compilation. "

I forgot to add this obscenely bad cover of "Totalimmortal" by The Offspring. As much as love The Offspring, I can't forgive them for this. They took the heart & soul out of the original, especially the vocals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImjWyhc9nwo

I don't want to say that no one should cover that song, but uh, I'd get the approval of the surviving members of The Cranberries first.

All these singers have such distinct styles they really should stay in their musical lanes and never drift Even someone like Michael Jackson I’m sure would sound ridiculous if they tried doing something totally off the wall for what they’re able to do everyday

Ok so Eric loving Clapton did a cover (kind of) of a Yellow Magic Orchestra song, Behind the Mask. https://youtu.be/SG_SgsG1-_o Clapton’s version is technically a cover of a version that was supposed to go to Michael Jackson work out until later, when that demo was release (and it’s not terrible) However, Greg Phillinganes took it and turned it into a loving banger. Holy poo poo this song RULES, I’ve been obsessed with it for like a month now. Incorporating YMOs original while taking it to 11. https://youtu.be/4SreNsrMu7k

It's within spirit but not letter Just a cover in exactly the same style with a just about as talented singer, I'm not even mad, it's just wholey unneeded but nonetheless well executed Original https://youtu.be/qhhwO5H2C8s Cover https://youtu.be/_lFJmAjBJdc
