Title: Oops!!!
Post by: Bradock PI on May 16, 2009, 11:43:39 PM
You know sometimes you find something on youtube and regret it - well I found two tonight - tell me which is worse the singing or the Angus solo on the strat!!!

and then it got worse, wasn't daring enough to remotely stay with the lyrics

It is one of my favorite songs - but at least I listened to Janis - Piece of my heart to compensate a little

ok the question worst famous artist  cover you heard - the Shania one is now mine for the moment

I honestly don't hate any of those performances.  In fact I think it's great that such mainstream artists are covering AC/DC songs.... even if the results leave something to be desired.

Anyway, 10 minutes looking at Anastacia's abs and/or Shakira's ass is time well spent, IMO.

Believe me if it wasn't for the compensating factors I wouldn't have posted them! :lol:

That rocked!  Not even Bonnie Tyler could better that!  MILF rock rules!


Now - I really do like the pedal steel solo on the Shania Twain version:

Everything about Celine Dijon ( :o) was the worst in this video.

Anastacia rocks though, come on, when she jumps in, it's like day and night, Anastacia is actually ROCK.

I thought the solo on the Celine Dion one was $%&#ing terrible.

I reckon Pink would sing ACDC/other rock stuff well enough. She seems to have a great voice live and her band are awesome (especially the lead guitarist)

I prefer the Shania Twain one to the original, and I hate Nashville pop-country. It's rescued by Jerry Douglass' marvelousness. It's fair to say, I think AC/DC are bland, uninspiring, boring mince though  :lol: So I was never gonna be sold on their version.

True story, buddy of mine turned down the Pink gig on general principle, right before she went rockier :D He was kicking himself afterwards :D :D

I again thought the Shakira and Shania ones were OK, largely because they did something different with them. The Celine Dion one seriously sucked though.

I found Rafael Moreira the better P!nk guitarist.

However, I saw her live with this guy and he was good too.

Highlight of the evening: On a longer guitar solo, P!nk was lying on the floor and rubbing her lower back against the Bogner 4x12 .... after having seen that I had to get that cab! :O)

I didn't think it was that bad, the singing was good and it was enjoyable to watch.

He's a great guitarist
Went from being in the Rockstar Supernova house band to touring with Kiss' Paul Stanley with the house band
Seemed to be using Bogner Shivas on that tour

I think I saw him at a "V" festival a few years ago. He was very, very good.

Does anybody actually like Rusty Cooley?  He seems to be one of the few players you can disparage without any would-be shredders getting their knickers in a twist.  :P

I think Rusty's biggest problem is that most of the stuff you see of him online is from instructional stuff where he's doing pretty dry very technical stuff to illustrate points. The only songs widely seen are "the butcher" (very old) and "Under the Influence" (not bad, but hardly groundbreaking). I quite like some of the Outworld stuff.
 Lots of pro players admit to watching his instructionals.
