Atrocities Committed in Music.

Micheal Buble. That is all.

ALL boy bands & their splinter artists(I use the word very loosely)eg;- Robbie Williams
90% of music after 1986 other than by established performers

I sound like my dad;there's no hope.

Do I need to say any more? Bad on so many levels

I love the original but I've always liked Rolf's too. He put his own individual stamp on it rather than try to copy the original.

This.

Here's what Wicki says:
Sacrilege is a double remix album by the band Can, released in 1997. It features remixes of many of the band's most well-known songs from the 1960s and 70s, remixed by contemporary recording artists.

Why these 'contempory recording artists' ( for that read ******* *******) were ever allowed anywhere near the original material is a total mystery. IMHO there is only 1 track which is even remotely listenable, most bear absolutely no resemblance to the alleged source track, the album is without doubt a complete and utter pile of sh1te and is the most extreme atrocity commited in music ever.

So much better than the original.

 

[Maverick Goose]

Any cover version of any song as performed by Katie Melua.

That's the closest thing to crazy I have ever been

sorry but I'm going to have to check that out... I like Can and like a good remix... although from your description, it may not have any 'good' remixes on it.

Scissor Sisters cover of Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb.

Just what were they thinking of?

Oh come on, that's genius. Pink Floyd's portentiousness makes them perfect for a Bee Gees-esque cover...

Please do, if you are a Can fan, as I am, I'd be interested in your views. The only decent track is the Westbam mix of '....and more', I can't really remember much else, as you may have gathered I don't listen to it. What I wrote above is what I remember thinking at the time when I got it and gave it a couple of listens.

[captain nemo1701]

Rick Wakeman re-doing Journey to the Centre of the Earth. Bought mag with it on cover, it's bloated and boring. Not a patch on the 1974 live original.

War of the Worlds remake - done, I'm told, to make it sound 'relevant to the 21st century and younger audiences'. In short, Jeff Wayne needed the cash and younger audiences get patronised as the music business thinks anyone under 25 is incapable of relating to anything recorded before they were born.

To be fair, I think Roger Waters should do a 25 minute dirge on the Scissor Sisters 'I don't feel like dancing' (or whatever it was called).

 

[marknotgeorge]

Sixpence None the Richer's version of...

Actually just Sixpence None the Richer

Kiss Me's a cover? I wondered why it was the only vaguely listen-able song on the album...
