I do like the recent covers of Cat Stevens The First Cut Is The Deepest (Sheryl Crow) and Pink Floyd's The Wall (don't remember -- Disturbed? ).
It's Korn.. and it's the second cover they've scored with, they did a cover of "Word Up" that sounded better than the original. sas Scott A.

This is the reason I don't understand Limp Bizkit's cover of Behind Blue Eyes. I do like the recent covers of Cat Stevens The First Cut Is The Deepest (Sheryl Crow) and Pink Floyd's The Wall (don't remember -- Disturbed? ). > The Goo Goo Dolls cover of "Give a Little Bit" is the same > way (although I do love it). The Sheryl Crow cover is nearly identical, so I'm not entirely certain why I like it except that perhaps the song itself is somewhat totemic for me. My craft name is "try" which, as odd as it might sound came to me by way of the song... "and they've taken almost all that I've got, but if you want I'll _try_ to love again." When I was considering a craft name I considered something more mainstream (for a craft name) but none of the more "traditional" sounding names felt to me like they fit my skin... I just couldn't be comfortable telling someone to call me "river-dancing leafy-tree spirit". I've met lots of people who are comfortable with names like "Laughing Oak" and the names seem even to fit them when I put the name to them from outside... they just don't fit on me... but because that's the common theme with craft names, that's what I got hung-up on when I was considering my own until I happened to be thinking about it at the same time that I was paying attention to the lyrics of The First Cut. Beyond the specific romantic implications of the song, the name itself is an assertion of tenacity and an affirmation and reminder of the expirimental nature of life. The irony is that the shorter name actually requires an explanation often because in the neo-pagan community when someone says "I'm Laughing Oak" it's generally accepted and understood, but when I say "I'm Try" I typically get the question "You're who?" or "Try what?". It's so short and so unusual (for a craft name) that people don't understand that it _is_ a craft name at first. I suppose it's not the length either, because "Raven" and "Talon" are generally received the same way "Laughing Oak" is received... Maybe it's because it's a verb and it'd be received the same way if someone introduced themselves as "Laugh" instead of "Laughter". :P Though the only noun equivalent I can think of is "attempt" which just doesn't have the same ring to it. :P > You also get the sense that if the songs didn't exist then > these would be the bands to create them. ;^) The recent cover of the Wall is much more ... bitter? ... It's a much more passionate song... and I think it does real justice to the idea behind the lyrics. And it's the sort of song I'd have expected from that band too. :) s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.fusiontap.com http://coldfusion.sys-con.com/author/4806Dealey.htm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:162888 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
