Most unexpected song you'd like to cover?

[JayStarr]

I know that Weller supposedly liked soul. As for Spears, a well-produced song is good, Roy Wood fan here, but her "music" is so damn robotic it may as well have been made by a...robot. She can't sing or dance, and her whole little miss iron virgin act was laughable years before she admitted she'd let someome stick his icky weewee inside her happy place [img]wink.gif[/img] !

As for The Dolls, the entire band had that Brill Building vibe, not just Johnny.

I'm trying to convince our guitarist to let us cover "Eye of the Tiger" from Rocky, and/or the theme music from Baywatch.

[JayStarr]

Wocky? Eye Uv The Tigah? Swy sez "Hewwo." [img]wink.gif[/img]

Baywatch? I actually like Pam for her skillful manipulation of her stupid blonde image. I thought her show VIP worked on its own level as well as being a parody of Charlie's Angels.

[lordofsteel]

Fair enough, but to be honest, Pam Schmam, everyone loves The Hoff. At least in Germany.

[JayStarr]

Yes, I know the latter-day judge of "America's Got Talent" has a big long time following in Europe.

Crappy show...they even have a pompous arsed Limey ala Simon Cowell who spends most of his time insulting the poor saps on the show. American I-Dull rip-off.

[A Katt Named Raggz]

If I covered a song...I'd probably do something from Rick Springfield or Stray Cats.

[JayStarr]

How about Gloria Trevi [img]wink.gif[/img] ?

[Marshy]

For what its worth, we did a few cover versions in the studio .. these are from mid 1990's:- Me;- Marshy on Vocals/Guitars .. Stevie B on Guitars .. Jivs on the Kit .. Jaffa on the Bass !

http://marshmusic.multiply.com/music/item/40

Shine .. Original Artist:- Collective Soul
Carz .. Original Artist:- Gary Newman ( Sounds like a Synth / Keyboard on this track, but it was all done on Guitarz..)
Only You .. Original Artist:- Alison Moyet ! ( Done in a Wildhearts fashion..)

.. there only up for a laugh so enjoy 'em ;0 )

Marshy's being modest. They're actually really
good - performance and production.
