songs "new band" should cover?
i was thinking what songs would be cool for them to cover? taking into account what suit Myle's voice, the music these guys are into and stuff I like I have come up with a little list.
Cohen's "Hallelujah" that appears on Jeff Buckley's Grace. There are times when listening to mf4's stuff that I almost swear Jeff didn't drown and he's still with us. That is a major compliment BTW! Led Zeppelin "Dazed and Confused" who wouldn't want to see Mark transform into Jimmy Page? If they are not too afraid of comparisons (vocally) then have a go at "Jesus Christ Pose" (with Stapp in video hehe) this would rock. "All Along the Watchtower" GNR's "Patience" Some Creed and MF4 material such as "My Sacrifice" and "Carry On". |
Hmmm, I want to hear their stuff first. :D
|
Mark as Jimmy Page....mmmm what a yummy image :D
I'd like to hear some of their stuff myself. I've never heard the new singer's voice. |
They should do Mmmbop by Hanson, but my band already has dibbs on it. That is, after we get more than just me and the bassist... And it will be a hard-rock version.
H-D :silly: |

I don't like it when well-known bands (I guess we can consider them well-known, since none o' them are newcomers) cover other well-known bands well-known songs. Especially when the cover sounds very very similar to the original. I think it'd be kinda cool if more bands took famous bands lesser-known songs, but those that are still pretty good, and covered them...

I enjoy covers most of the time. Especially when they're a real surprise at a concert. Pearl Jam has done some nice covers over the years, and they mix it up, which keeps their concerts unique and fresh. I love PJ's version of Neil Young's Fuckin' Up. It's really, really good. APC also did a cool cover of a lesser known band's song on their second album...The Nurse Who Loved Me, by Failure. It's a cool version, too.

you don't want a band to become a cover band but i think a cover here and there spices things up and keeps things fresh. And its even better for a new group such as this that will have a fairly limited number of songs availiable to them. Besides i'm sure they would put their own spin on these songs and perhaps even "own" that song. |
Yeah, that's true. APC also did an Ozzy cover on their first tour, because, as they said, they only had one album of songs :D.

i wanna here them sing 'off to never never land' by metallica only because i love the song. :o

but, come to think of it, i've heard some pretty good covers. PJ's Last Kiss is kinda cool... matchbox twenty did this awesome cover of cyndi lauper's Time After Time a few years ago, it was especially moving at the concert i was at because it was less than a week after 9/11/01 (i went to 2 concerts that week--m20 and Blast!, i think m20 was the one a few days after, Blast! being the 12th or 13th or so, where they played a wicked hardcore rendition of the National Anthem)... and i guess i like Creed's take on "I'm Eighteen" too |
Any Something for Kate song would be a wet dream. Something like "Hallways" or "Pinstripe"
Dont know who Something for Kate are? check them out, you'll love them. |

Its called Enter Sandman. Anyways it would be pretty cool for them to cover some Skynyrd or GNR. I would love to hear what Myles can do on something like Paradise City or Free Bird. |

Did you already hear the "Simple Man"(Skynyrd) cover by Shinedown??? IMO so much better even than the original!! Check it out on the Shinedown-site : http://wm.atlrec.com/shinedown/simpleman-wma-full.wma (Windows Media) or http://mfile.akamai.com/9139/rm/stre...man-rm-full.rm (Real Audio) |
