I was on the boat between Helsinki and Stockholm and heard a house remix Killing Me Softly With His Song that made me wonder, who asked for this? In that thread, what other songs aren’t really crying out for a remix or cover? Lennon’s Imagine but dubstep? Second Wave Black Metal The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald? J-Pop Werewolves of London (uwuuuuuu werewolves of London)? Bonus points if you manage to find an example. Totally fine if you like the actual original or cover, ain’t no shame (maybe)

I assure you, you have many reasons to dislike, even hate me. Sadly (hah), I’ve heard them all before.kntfkr posted:Anything by Patreon founder Pomplamoose. Are you loving serious I’ve never once heard a twee cover of anything that doesn’t make me taste vomit. We’re done with that as a society, correct?

Ralph Crammed In posted:There are not many songs that I will actively shut the radio off for when they come on, but the Counting Crows cover of Big Yellow Taxi will do it. The radio station my morning alarm is set to plays it sometimes and it's a bad way to start the day. seconded, that song awakens a rage I feel with little else. What an atrocious cover

an actual frog posted:see also Portsmouth Sinfonia, professional musicians sincerely playing* the popular classics with instruments they haven't trained on Portsmouth Sinfonia rules, as does The Langley Schools Music Project and PS22 (I still loathe you Ariel Pink but their cover of Round and Round is amazing)

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

I literally know nothing of the show except “it’s from Apple” and “apparently it’s feel good”. I’m guessing covers of songs are a thing

Snowglobe of Doom posted:Ted Lasso started out as a TV ad campaign that was so popular it got turned into a TV series so I guess it's technically a remix??? what seriously? like I’m a fan of Ernest, but like we don’t have to keep doing that Snowglobe of Doom posted:Strange Fruit yeaaaaaaah that's my jam UNF UNF UNF reality_groove posted:Can we just add Glee covers and Disney pop single covers as batch entries.
