Oops!!!
« 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

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHtuGMHWAf0&feature=related

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.

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.
