99% of the remixes classic songs that so called new artits record by putting a dance beat over the top of the original because they do not have the talent to write there own songs.

We've all done really well with this thread. biggrin
We've managed to anme and shame almost every group, artist, novelty act in the last 40 years who have sold more than 100 copies. Are we all really that fickle? confused

oh yes!

We've done the fav songs thread, now how about the songs we hate?
Love Shack - B52's

Hey I thought it was just me who hated this song - not sure what it is about it but I cringe whenever it comes on!
:scared:
I also detest LoveShack... though earlier B52's I've recently rediscovered... took me back a bit...
52 Girls... Planet Claire... Brill!

Here, here Wineman (it makes me laugh when the 'youth' of today think they have discovered a totally new song....then wonder how on earth us 'un hip' and 'non trendy' oldies know the words lol )
Have any covers ever been better than the originals??
at this time of the morning I can't think of any off the top of my head....although Fine Young Cannibals did do a good cover of Elvis' Suspicious Minds (lmao...showing my age now :lol: )
anyone got any offers on better cover versions?

Jimi Hendrix - All along the watch tower (bob Dylan original).
Stevie Ray Vaughan done loads of great covers including Hendrix's Voodoo Child and The wind cry's mary both wonderful.
I have to mention 'Doncha wish your girlfriend was hot like me' grrr - totally not one for the sisterhood! (having said that I don't hate 'My Humps')
Tainted Love by Soft feckin Cell makes me want to drown the radio in a tub off water and just as it gurgles its last breath, permanantly turn it off with a sledgehammer!

surely thats not the point......... the point is. does it make ya dance?
house music evolves.....
i say "good on ya" if you manage to create a top choon out of a top choon...........
have you ever tried to do a remix...... that people like...... seems not.....
Just come back from 2 weeks away to this thread and don't know where to start. I think anyone who says I hate anything by "Insert name of band" is narrow minded as even someone like Robbie Williams (who I hate) can occasionally make a half decent record. Some of the stuff slagged off I like....... redface Soft Cell for example and REM.
BUT I do loathe the recent deluge of safe 'coffee table' music from the likes of Grey, Blunt, Meluia etc etc but it's the genre not the artists. Even they may one day write a song that gets near the spot for me......
If I had to pick out one song that has being diving for the off button, it's Born in the USA by Springsteen.

Don't you just hate all those cover versions of classic artists like Mozart or Beethoven? Why can't they just leave the originals alone. It seems every time I go to a classic concert it is filled with a tribute band doing a cover version ggrrrrrrrrrr .
