Yesssss. I downloaded this one a long time ago. Love the bridge, where she talks about how lame the lyrics are.

whitney houston is a crackhead angel and a very gifted singer

would you count a remix as a cover?

storymilo · 10-22-2009, 07:18 PM

She's a talented singer sure but have you actually listened to that song? It takes about 2 minutes for her to get through each syllable at the beginning. And that's as far as I can get...

No doubt she's a great singer but that doesn't automatically mean she makes good music. That song's just horrible. Talking about overdoing it. She's putting like every singing technique known to man in the first couple of sentences. Annoying as hell.

Hey! Wonderwall is a good song!

And I dislike Ryan Adams cover. So, is that a bad cover of a good song?

the clash, junco partner, originaly an old blues song by professer longhair, it's not fair to compare given the decades that seperate the songs but the clash really do this justice, for one of punk rocks leading bands to attempt it in the style they did respect!

alice russell, singing gnarls barkley's, crazy, i think it's an outstanding cover.
