Message: [QUOTE="diapered, post: 128844, member: 143752"] Oh wow, I thought I replied >_< Nice post [USER=250953]@Mr. Daddy[/USER] I'll try to remember what I wrote >_> Complete agreement on 10 years cover, and that is one I have note heard before <3 As much as I like Nirvana, I would probably say I do like that one better, but like you said, I love when they make the cover more haunting, menacing etc. And adding piano to a song that did not originally have piano is a way to make me like it :P All that said, it is interesting how you also brought up the cover of "Mad World" because I think that is a case of just the opposite! I also like the original better because the attempt to make it more haunting and slow kinda backfired and it is a little too slow and boring :( I like the tears for fears version better. Alien ant farm's cover of smooth criminal had to grow on me, at first I didn't really care for it, but now I actually think it is better (but only very slightly, takes lots of gal to cover the king). They have the same energy, but I like how they condensed it, focusing only on the most catchy parts and made it shorter. So I guess they edge out the original with a "technicality". Kind of same reason I like Halestorm's cover of bad romance over the original. Yea, Shinedown's cover of Simple Man goes hard, and it is a good, but idk. A stripped down acoustic version doesn't really do it for me for that song. I wonder why that is because some songs I MUCH prefer if there is an acoustic/stripped version... Maybe I just love the original too much? I think it is one of those good cover discussions and theory. [/QUOTE]
