Ok, so who wants to vote for who? Let's try to get this started shall we?

Repeating for the record. Peter Gabriel.

So the current vote stands at:

Peter Gabriel - 3
TVOTR - 1

I'm curious to know why everyone picked the cover that they did. Personally, I picked Peter's version because I thought that it worked a bit better, having a more toned down feeling and strings instead of electronics.

I was not big on either one actually. But I thought the Gabriel one was such a funeral dirge. At least the TV one had some dynamics. Although I did like Gabriels vocals.

Trollheart · 05-28-2015, 04:41 PM

I just like it when someone does something different, and for me TVOTR did nothing new with the song. I also like orchestral interpretations, plus of course I love Gabriel's voice. Easy choice for me.

FWIW let's call this for Gabriel. Carpe, you want to try one?

Carpe Mortem · 05-29-2015, 03:45 PM

Yeah dude I'm obsessed with covers.

Tomorrow Never Knows (Originally The Beatles)

Tough call for me because I fvckin love Trouble, but those dudes did a hell of a job.

Oriphiel · 05-29-2015, 03:56 PM

Heh, the intro to Trouble's version was quite excellent.

I think I'll have to send my vote their way, even though the other version was very good as well.

Gabriel for the win

INVERNESS gets my vote.

Also I have one of these in mind if I can be added to the queue.
