When A Cover Song Is Better Than The Original.....
 
1. Do you think the original artist takes offense?

2. What are your favorite cover songs that you would say are better than the original.

HERE IS ONE EXAMPLE

HALLELUJAH BY JEFF BUCKLEY IS WAY BETTER THAN LEONARD COHEN.

In the first case, I think it's to patently show how ridiculous the original song was. So yeah, I would probably be offended if I were Fergie and Friends. Then again, I think I'd be offended if I wrote that song in the first place, simply by default.

In the second case:

Quote:

Reznor said that when Rubin first asked if Cash could cover his song, he was "flattered" but worried that "the idea sounded a bit gimmicky." He became a fan of Cash's version, however, once he saw the music video.

“I pop the video in, and wow… Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps… Wow. [I felt like] I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore… It really made me think about how powerful music is as a medium and art form. I wrote some words and music in my bedroom as a way of staying sane, about a bleak and desperate place I was in, totally isolated and alone. [Somehow] that winds up reinterpreted by a music legend from a radically different era/genre and still retains sincerity and meaning — different, but every bit as pure."

Thought I could get in before Hurt, to no avail. Cash's version is inferior to the original.

BigDaddyCool 05-03-2010 05:35 PM

Blitz is canadian, therefore knows nothing about music.

Jeritron 05-04-2010 10:42 PM

Hallelujiah by Leonard Cohen is one of the most covered songs going, so I highly doubt he takes offense to people thinking one of them is better than his. It's bound to happen, but it's all subjective anyways.
I personally think Leonard Cohen's is the shit, but I'm also a sucker for the real deal a lot of the time. Sometimes the fact that someone created a song is part of what I "get off" to

Jeritron 05-04-2010 10:43 PM

Bob Dylan's songs are always brought up as songs that are better when covered by ______. This is more than likely due to the fact that he's an incredible song writer but not a very good singer.
Before anyone freaks out at that, I love Bob Dylan. He's just not what you would traditionally considered a great performer.

McLegend 05-04-2010 10:48 PM

I like 80's music, and right now I really like Tears for Fears.

Saying that Gary Jules version of "Mad World" is far superior to the original.

I do like Cash's Hurt better then NIN, but I was never a NIN fan. I do love the Cash video as well. It's really good.

With Hallelujah, I didn't realize it was covered so much. Who did the original? I've always been of fan of the Rufus Wainwright version. That's a song I love to play on piano and he did it on piano.


My favorite that I can think of right now is Am I Wrong by Brand New. They covered the Love Spit Love song

Pretty much every song The Beatles covered is better than the original.

OssMan 05-05-2010 12:33 AM

There are always people who are like "I didn't even know that was a cover." You will find that a lot with Limp Bizkit's "Behind Blue Eyes," people don't know it was by The Who. That Mad World song was all over the Gears of War commercial and Donnie Darko so probably that one too. Through this thread I have learned that hitting the right arrow key during a youtube video will make it skip ahead.

.44 Magdalene 05-05-2010 01:44 AM

Yeah, I've gotta give something for the Rufus Wainright version of Hallelujah, as well.

Fucking hell. Listen, the beauty of humankind is we can all like different things (which doesn't happen these days with the youth eating up the similar sounding Auto-Tuned RnB crap out there). But oh my god I actually fucking am shocked someone would say this.

I guess there's someone out there who prefers DJ Sammy's version of Bryan Adams' "Heaven". All that "stripped" stuff is cos people just can't compete with the originals and tends to try to tug on the heart strings of the fools who fall in.

TFF > Gary Jules.

But I know you're not the only one, I just fucking hope I'm not the only one who thinks what I think, cos I do believe the world would be wrong. TFF are amazing and their production detail for the time is devastating spot on.

That is true, but I still feel like Guns 'N Roses version of Knockin' on Heaven's Door was better than the original.

Here's a cover that's certainly more recognized, if not generally considered better:

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fregObNcHC8&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fregObNcHC8&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7n0pf7anLa4&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7n0pf7anLa4&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>


Here's another one:
<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JH3WvI_S6-k&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JH3WvI_S6-k&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/mJqh6au7Ol0&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/mJqh6au7Ol0&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

I'm not sure I would say one is better than the other, both pretty kick ass.

I would definately say the original Don Henley version is better in this case...
