Cover Song

Come on, let’s be honest here. We’re in a safe space. Are there covers you prefer over the originals? I don’t know about the rest of you, but the radios keep playing reboot of classic songs. While they’re fine remakes, they play like ALL the time. We make bets at our work when the radio stations will play them.

So when I say prefer a cover over an original, it doesn’t mean you don’t like the original. Just, you might like a cover that little bit better. All the ones on the radio, I actually don’t like, lol. They’re fine, but these remixes encourage no originality, whatsoever.

Here a few of my favourite covers: Again, I like all the originals, just fine, I just prefer these ones a little more.

Sorry, lol…I cry at this version.

All the Yes’s!

Now we all know the book is pretty much all the time better than the movie. Which is why sometimes I wont read the book until I’ve seen the movie. However, I don’t always believe this is true. What I try to do, is separate the two. I tell myself before I see the movie that this is not the book, it’s a completely separate thing. Sometimes when I look at the new covers, I feel it doesn’t really let you use your imagination. It almost feels like when you see the movie character on the cover, that’s it…That’s the character. That’s it.

I do dislike it though when they decide to “update” anything really. Take Star Wars for a good example, when they decided to make 1,2 & 3 and they changed the original ending of number 6 and put Hayden Christensen at the end instead of the “original” Darth Vader, Sebastian Shaw (I say “original” because there were about 3 people who played the original Darth Vader). Now ALL the new dvds and blurays have Hayden Christensen at the end…Even though he didn’t “die” young…It’s just a silly concept, which makes no sense. Darth Vader died an older man, not a young one. They didn’t change Obi-Wan, did they?
