Hats off to whoever snuck in Tay Tay

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Sure you can

Just don’t embarrass the family name with that number you did at the school show Tarkyn_24

Glad I'm not in this round. I'd be quite conflicted.

 

[Plugger35]

It's hard to know whether to vote for a band you like and a song you don't like or a band you don't like and a song you like.

I normally don't like Taylor Swift songs but I like Something for Kate so that's a tough one.

 

[Loonerty]

Gang of Youth's cover of "Blood" was heart-wrenching and emotional :3 Great choice. I know the original and they did it justice.

They also did this great LAV:

 

[Plugger35]

They also did this great LAV:

It's not that great, they are just copying the original Travis song which is better, it's like Weezer copying the better Toto original.

They are basically just a pub rock cover band playing the same version as the original song but not as good as the original song.

A great cover version is when a band puts their own spin on a song like this great cover of Hells Bells from The Dandy Warhols.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

About to listen to the playlist with genuine anxiety. These songs are usually either really tame, completely botched or so far detached from the original or offer nothing inspiring from the original.

When I was looking for my song I skipped a lot of songs.

Don't agree with everything but they had to do better with Travis sing.

It's not as good as this one:

I quite liked the playlist, despite my trepidation

You missed one!

 

[Plugger35]

Divinyls would have won Like a Version back in the 80s with their cover of this Easybeats song.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Didn't anyone update the OP?

Almost finished when I realised I was listening to and ranking the songs from the light/dark round.

 

[Tonga Bob]

Sunday night update from the host (me).

Vote deadline approaches, awaiting judgement from Dinsdale Loonerty Plugger35 & Stokey

One song has led for pretty much the whole journey, but a few others are making ground. The billy is pretty much done and dusted. One donut left to be consumed.

Tick tock kids.

 

[Tonga Bob]

In the meantime, seeing as though others have posted other LAV songs they like, I shall do the same.








(she also did a good cover of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road)
