Title: Celine Dion needs to stop covering Lennon songs
Post by: Mairi on November 28, 2004, 02:15:42 PM
First she covered Merry Xmas (War is Over), my all-time favorite Christmas song, and now she's covering Beautiful Boy for that creepy Anne Geddes Miracle album. When will she learn?

I rather she covered them....though.

People just cover them, because they know they have a hit regardless of the version..its not going to do their careers any harm..unless they really mess things up.

I never enjoyed and to an extent hate beatles covers, especially the one by fiona apple. Celine Dion should just stick to high grossing movie theme songs. ;D

that first one, the cover disgusted me. blaaaaaah. ive heard too many covers of that song. yuk yuk. she ruined a very beautiful song!
and i agree with Indica, you cant make their songs better...anyone who loves the beatles isnt exactly going to warm to a cover of them.....it just wont be as good!

Post by: lennonlemon on January 30, 2005, 10:42:08 PM
yes, but there are quite a few good covers and some i might consider better than the original. i mean, jimi hendrix's version of all along the watchtower was a cover of bob dylan's, cream covered crossroads, and aretha franklin covered respect. those songs are muuch better than the original in my opinion.
Title: Re: Celine Dion needs to stop covering Lennon songs
Post by: Mairi on January 30, 2005, 11:11:05 PM
Don't forget, The Beatles covered Twist and Shout!

And I didn't know that Respect was a cover.
Title: Re: Celine Dion needs to stop covering Lennon songs
Post by: lennonlemon on January 30, 2005, 11:16:50 PM
it was originally sung by otis redding, who was a pretty good singer himself.

Huh. You learn something new every day.
Title: Re: Celine Dion needs to stop covering Lennon songs
Post by: lennonlemon on January 30, 2005, 11:33:01 PM
yes you do...

if you think celine dion's covers are bad, listen (it is unsafe so be aware) to limp bizkit's "behind blue eyes," Dolly Parton's "Stairway to Heaven," Sheryl Crow's "Sweet Child O' Mine," and Hilary Duff's "My Generation."(my cousin told me about these bad covers, i killed him afterward)

All blasphemy on the holy thing that is rock and roll.
Title: Re: Celine Dion needs to stop covering Lennon songs
Post by: Sondra on January 30, 2005, 11:37:04 PM
Dolly Parton's Stairway to Heaven!!?? Was Dolly on drugs at the time? I don't know what else would explain it.

Also, I think Pete Townshend needs to smash a guitar over Hillary Duff's head. Too bad Moon isn't alive, he might actually have done it.

OH. MY. f***ING. LORD.

I can't belive that pop tart Hilary Duff covered My Generation! It makes me hate her even more! And that's saying a lot because I REALLY REALLY hate her.
Title: Re: Celine Dion needs to stop covering Lennon songs

does she do the stutter.  cos that would be too much for me i would have to eliminate her.  The limp bizkit "Blue eyes' is horrible, theres some metalic voice in the back going  L         I        M      P.   its awful

That's goodbye to the first handful of Beatle albums then.
Personally I find it strange that the love of one band can inspire so much hatred in others.
I used to be very particular (read snobby) about my music, but maybe I'm melowing with age.

Smoking appears to be a common thread amongst many of us.
Are you a hash or weed man? (i'm bit of a pill freak as well myself)

I kept hearing someone singing Beautiful Boy over grocery store intercomes and I never knew who it was. Then I saw Celine Dion on Oprah singing it. She's so damn annoying.
