That's so pathetic.

Tuesday Weld · 05-04-2003, 10:05 PM

well,one thing I can say for sure,is that I like ANY remake of a song by Elvis and Dusty Springfield.If I think of more I will post them.

Remakes I dislike are -

"Suspicious Minds" by Alan Jackson?(Not sure if he remade it,but I know some country singer(s) did).

"Jailhouse Rock" by Motley Crue

There are so many I dislike,I'll have to come back to this,when I think of more.

Best

Pretty Woman - Van Halen
Suspicious Minds - Dwight Yoakam
Proud Mary - Creedence Clearwater Revival
You Can't Hurry Love - Phil Collins
Time After Time - Eva Cassidy
Vincent (Starry, Starry Night) - Josh Groban

Worst

Satisfaction - Aretha Franklin
Papa Don't Preach - Kelly Osborne
Come Together - Michael Jackson
Under The Boardwalk - Bruce Willis

Satisfaction : Justine Bateman of "Family Ties" once made a movie with this title, and also sang the song in the film. She was as bad, if not worse, than Aretha Franklin.

I Saw Him Standing There - Tiffany

The original version of this song was by The Beatles, and it was called I Saw HER Standing There. The title was changed, for obvious reasons.

Eh, I can only think of one song remake that I really like. Actually, this song got me really interested in Billy Idol again. Anyway, it's 'Don't You Forget About Me' by Billy Idol. It's on his Greatest Hits cd.
