Alright, it's time to put this thing to work for me again. In preparation for this weekend's mini-road trip (more details to come in the upcoming days), I'm putting together a few playlists for the drive. One of them is entirely of covers, but unfortunately, I only have about ten songs so far. Anyone out there got any suggestions for good covers that I probably haven't found yet?
To get you started, after the jump, two covers that are already on the playlist. In addition, you'll get to hear Morgan Freeman doing spoken word Barenaked Ladies. If that doesn't get you to click "Read more," I really don't know what will.
Fine, it's a Morgan Freeman impersonator, but you have to admit, he does a pretty damn good job. Remember to post your song suggestions in the comments. I swear, every time I see that someone's posted something, I get a little aroused. So....thanks.

have you seen "We can work it out" covered by Stevie Wonder. That's a good one.

ReplyDeletethe gourds covering gin and juice.
ReplyDeleteRed Hot Chili Peppers do a cool cover of Brandy by looking glass and of Havana Affair by the Ramones, but their most famous is higher ground. They also have some good Hendrix covers in Castles made of sand and Fire. Hendrix's All Along the Watchtower is also a cover. Rage Against the Machine has a whole album of covers, the best probably being renegades of funk and kick out the jams. And Dispatch covers their Bulls on Parade. Bitches Aint Shit cover by Ben Folds is a must. Blinded by the Light by Manfred Mann's Earth Band. Fugees, killing me softly and no woman no cry, Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah, Matisyahu's Message in a Bottle, Tainted Love by Soft Cell, Counting Crows with Big Yellow Taxi, Quiet Riot's Come on Feel the Noise and Lenny Kravitz's American Woman. That's all I got for now
ReplyDeletesee if you can download the album "Punk goes 90's". It's a bunch of pseudo famous punk bands covering a ton of fairly famous 90's songs (i.e. punk versions of wonderwall, black hole sun, jumper, hey jealousy, and others). I bought it years ago and still enjoy the crap out of it.
