    Pretty much any cover of a tears for fears song. For some reason I don’t vibe with their sound, but their song writing is really good. Their songs get covered a lot and I like almost all of the covers way better than the original. Hell, even if they themselves play an acoustic version of their songs, I really enjoy it!

          It’s not just that he’s a piece of shit, it’s that he’s a whiny bitch about being a piece of shit. “oh please don’t give me a hard time for my garbage ass opinions”. Fuck the drummer of System of a Down and his apologist guitarist too while we’re at it.

    Postmodern Jukebox’s version of We Can’t Stop.

    Their version of Take Me to Church is pretty good, too. Not the the original was bad, but Morgan James just takes it to another level. If you find a live version where it’s just her and a pianist, it’s pretty impressive. Got to see it live awhile back and had chills.

    Im gonna be a bit tangental. I don’t like much original elvis stuff and I like the beatles but rock matured a lot after them. So often I like remakes of both better than the originals.

    Most covers of Beatles songs. I couldn’t get into the hype for the boy band but I like when other people try to spruce up their music a bit. Crucify me.

      That’s not a Beatles song, close though, It’s McCartney and the wings.

        I just assumed speaking ill of the Beatles music would be bringing down fury on myself. Mayhaps it is not so controversial

          Anyone telling you that your musical tastes are “wrong” would be being really immature

          Although yes I would disagree

    Noah Hawley and Jeff Russo did a cover of Don’t Come Around Here No More by Tom Petty for the show Legion that is fantastic, I’ve never liked anything from Tom Petty.

    This is one where I quite like the original, I hate the Madness cover that made it famous, but I love this more recent version:

    It Must Be Love (Crooked Man remix) - Lady Blackbird
