Didn't see the movie, but enjoyed the soundtrack. I have to give a shoutout to Howie Day's "Help!" since no one's mentioned it. I thought it was a really really great cover. The one thing that did bother me, was that some songs (like SSF by Ben Harper) were just too close to the original. If I remember correctly, every note/instrument was practically the same, except it was Ben singing it. Unless you change it in some way, put a new spin on it, it's just going to end up a not-as-good attempt at the original. ~ missy P. S. - I did a cover a long time ago of Across the Universe. It's nothing special, I recorded it with a freeware recording program and a cheap mic from my dorm, but if you'd care to hear, it's at http://www.purevolume.com/missy  |
