November 12, 200916 yr I only created this because it sounds ultimate and final. This thread will herein be neutral and open to anything and everything having to do with music. The idea is to break down the band thread walls and let a chaotic sea of ideas and interests flood in...BEGIN!
November 12, 200916 yr All around me are familiar faces Worn out places, worn out faces Bright and early for their daily races Going nowhere, going nowhere And their tears are filling up their glasses No expression, no expression Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow No tomorrow, no tomorrow And I find it kind of funny I find it kind of sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you 'Cos I find it hard to take When people run in circles It's a very, very Mad World Children waiting for the day they feel good Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday Made to feel the way that every child should Sit and listen, sit and listen Went to school and I was very nervous No one knew me, no one knew me Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson Look right through me, look right through me
November 13, 200916 yr Muse are crap. Radiohead is better than Coldplay. *runs away, leaves lighter and gasoline behind*
November 13, 200916 yr Author So this thread has nothing to do with the band known as the music? not specifically, no. I had a feeling someone would bring them up.
November 13, 200916 yr Author Yes, I knew that. That is why I said the old, slow one :P Why say old at all? considering its quite recent.
November 13, 200916 yr Author Oh yeah, my mom was crazy about that. Its funny, whenever most people hear about a cover of one of their favorite songs/bands they'll be like :awesome:. I just go :cringe: (especially when it comes to coldplay covers).
November 13, 200916 yr I like both Fiona Apple's and Rufus Wainwright's cover of Across The Universe and Oasis' cover of I am The Walrus (but mostly because of the story behind it), but that's about it. I don't think I've heard Dove's cover of Blackbird, though. Oh, wait. EDIT: I forgot about Ray Charles' cover of Yesterday. It's so beautiful, I might like it more than the original.
November 13, 200916 yr by Kanye? everyone's covering that these days. Thats the one. Who else has covered it?
November 13, 200916 yr The Fray's "Heartless" cover I am rather fond of. Same here. Thats the one. Who else has covered it? That guy from American Idol did I believe. For the most part, covers are either the same or worse than the original. But in some cases they are just as good or even better. Where would Hallelujah be without Jeff and Rufus and John covering it so beautifully? Nearly every Bob Dylan song has been covered and most of the time the covers are far better since the new versions put so much into them. Hendrix's All Along The Watchtower? Fahget about it.
