Rushmoras September 5 Share September 5 Helloween did a pretty good Judas Priest's Electric Eye cover. Link to comment
Palimelon September 6 Share September 6 The production values on the original are definitely...something. And yeah, Dennis was definitely a bit too coked up while filming. But it's still a good song. The cover version is a nice modern update of it, and point for having the female and male switch singing parts as well. 1 Link to comment

Annber03 September 12 Share September 12 ...did not know she covered that song :D! Given the lyrics, "I got sick this mornin'" hits very differently with a woman singing it XD. I know that's not what that line is referring to, of course, but...yeah. 1 Link to comment
Annber03 October 3 Share October 3 Damn, that was a good performance. Makes me rather sad I never saw him live, that would've been a fun show to see. I'd never heard that "Killer" song until that clip - I like it! 1 Link to comment

Annber03 October 3 Share October 3 Oh, neat, thanks for the info. I'll have to check out the original, too, then. Link to comment
Palimelon October 3 Share October 3 (edited) There are 2 versions, the original by Seal and Adamski (they co-wrote it), then Seal re-recorded it for his debut album. Both versions are similar, though the second version has a slightly slower tempo. But both are worth a listen. Edited October 3 by Palimelon 1 Link to comment

Annber03 October 21 Share October 21 Wow, I didn't know Cocker covered that song. That was a great version. That song really fits with his voice. 1 Link to comment
One4Sorrow2TooBad October 22 Share October 22 (edited) Joe Cocker used to do a lot of covers, almost always done quite well, some I liked better than the originals. In his prime, Joe was a formidable force few could contend with. His cover at Woodstock of The Beatles "With A Little Help From My Friends" literally blew everyone away.

Rushmoras October 27 Share October 27 Speaking of covers and Laura Branigan (from another topic) [out of those that I specifically know]: Forever Young cover (I think by Alphaville first sung) The Sweet Hello, the Sad Goodbye (by Roxette first sung) Link to comment
