Rock : OVER THE YEARS….

Re: OVER THE YEARS….

this thread has so many comments now, it's hard to look through songs that have already been *covered*, so, sorry if this has been mentioned already, if not then it really must be mentioned:





suck it.

Re: OVER THE YEARS….

Looks like you are the first! This is such a surprise! I never heard the original! Usually, it's a case of me not having heard the cover!

You asked a pretty question; I've given you the ugly answer.

Re: OVER THE YEARS….

ah very good! :) well, Lead Belly is a great blues artist to begin with and it's worth checking out more from him imo.

here's another one of his rather popular songs (don't know if it has been covered tho ;) )



suck it.

Re: OVER THE YEARS….

Just never heard his rendition of Where Did You Sleep Last Night.

Re: OVER THE YEARS….

tbf it was Kurt's cover song which is one of my favourites on the whole Unplugged album that made me aware of Lead Belly. i heard that Kurt's song is a cover, so i checked out the original song. and bc i also liked the original, i got interested in more songs from the artist and became a fan. i'm not really well versed in the whole blues genre, just happen to like a few artists. Nina Simone is another blues artist i'm into.

suck it.

Re: OVER THE YEARS….

@Loki have u heard Robyn's cover song?



(there's also a mastered version, but i prefer the live one, also bc Björk herself is in the audience and we see her reaction)


suck it.

Yes, it was broadcast on tv here (Polar Prize, I think).

Re: OVER THE YEARS….


I'm still taking the time to listen to some of the music on your "What are you listening to?" Thread as well as the fun songs and covers on this one.
Perhaps more music and less worry over world events would help us all…

Absolutely! I listen to music a lot, especially if I'm in transit, exercising, cleaning and cooking. I'm glad you check out "what are you listening to" thread even though sometimes it gets a bit LOUD and vicious! I'm loving this thread, too.
