FabSwingers.com forum: What is love ?

By (user no longer on site) OP

Just had to endure 2 minutes of David Guetta and Anne Marie's cover of Haddaways classic

What is love on 2fm. Insert puke emoji

Should be a frontrunner for 2023 crimes against humanity.

So what are decent covers of originals?

Sound of silence by disturbed is amazing.

Also dancing in the moonlight (not the thin lizzy one, the other one) is a cover it turns out, the original isn't worth hearing

I wanna be yours by Arctic monkeys is an adaptation of a poem (think it's John Cooper Clarke?) that ones for you lolly

Faith no more also do a cover of the Portishead song…. Can’t remember the title. Think it’s something “wanna be a woman….” Or something to that effect

Really cool

For me a cover should totally flip the original.

My favourite is Hellsongs jaunty take on Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man”. It sounds nothing remotely like the original.

And Torre Florim reworks the Prodigy’s “Firestarter” into a right slow brooding, crooning tune. It’s marvellous.

Ok, one more that is well worth seeking out, Jonathan Wilson’s stoner, surf take on Madonna’s “La Isla Bonita”. Incredible.
